What is the difference between a Will and a Trust?
A Will is a document that distributes your assets after your death. So is a Trust. So how are they different? Because you still own your property when you pass with a Will, the Probate Court has to get involved so your assets can be sold and/or distributed. With a Trust, you put your assets into the Trust NOW. When you pass, nothing has to be probated because the TRUST still owns the assets. Now the Trustee just distributes them as you have designated. In other words, your heirs avoid thousands of dollars in probate attorney’s fees, and the lengthy and confusing process of court-supervised probate!

A Word About Pet Trusts
Your fur baby is your baby, right? Well, not according to the law! Your beloved is just a piece of property to be disposed of like your couch or clothes. And the Goodwill for dogs and cats (the Shelter) is not a place you want your beloved babies to end up. So how do you make them your babies? You appoint a guardian for them and leave money for their care! Call me about a Pet Trust and you can rest easy knowing your furry friends will be well cared for.
