Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Living Trusts and Probate
Is a living trust for everyone?
No. Some individuals do not own enough assets to be concerned with probate. Other individuals may have great wealth but they hold title to their assets in a manner which will avoid probate when they die, such as joint tenancy. Still others actually wish to have the court involved in the administration of their estate to make sure their wishes are carried out after they die.
