About this book
Estate planning is one of those subjects where the jargon does most of the damage. This paperback strips the vocabulary back and explains what a revocable living trust actually is, what it does that a will does not, and why probate is the thing most people are trying to avoid without quite knowing why.
What the book covers
- How a revocable living trust works, in plain language
- Trusts compared with wills — what each does, and what neither does
- Probate: what it costs, how long it takes, and how a trust sidesteps it
- Funding a trust, and the step people most often skip
- Choosing trustees and successor trustees
- Powers of attorney, healthcare directives, and the documents that sit alongside a trust
- Common mistakes that leave a trust ineffective when it is finally needed
Who it’s for
Anyone approaching estate planning for the first time, adult children helping a parent organise their affairs, and readers who want to understand the terms before paying for an attorney’s time.
A note
General educational reading, not legal advice. Trust and probate law varies significantly by state.
