❓ What's the Difference Between a Will and a Trust?
A Will and a Trust can both help distribute assets, but they work very differently.
A Will takes effect after death and typically goes through probate. A Trust can help manage assets during your lifetime and may allow certain assets to pass outside of probate. For some families, a Will is sufficient. For others, a Trust may offer additional benefits.
The right plan depends on your goals, your assets, and your family's needs.
