A revocable trust is an inter vivos or living trust, meaning that it is established during the grantor’s life, as part of an estate plan. They can be useful to ensure privacy, avoid the costs and delays associated with the probate process, and provide for continuity of asset management.

Wills are a key part of estate planning, but to assure that your estate plan fulfills your intentions, speak with your attorney or planner on the proper titling of your assets.

Quality estate planning begins with effective and coordinated financial planning and tax planning. In that way, your life-long estate grows more effectively and can be managed throughout your life and thereafter. Your estate plan should be designed to implement your own goals. Talk with your family about what you want to accomplish. Include your estate-planning attorney in these discussions. A valid Will, and possibly a Living Trust, can then be constructed as the basic transfer documents. These documents form the basis for asset transfers that meet your well-thought-out goals and objectives and can be developed to minimize fees, expenses and publicity (probate proceedings are generally public) associated with the probate process.
