President Oaks and his associates overcame all these hurdles and more to make BYU’s J. Reuben Clark Law School a precocious member of the top 25 in the latest U.S. News & World Report law school rankings. Most top law schools were founded in the 1800s, and, in fact, all but two of the report’s top 28 schools were founded before 1910 — UCLA in 1949 and BYU in 1973.
Those “one night stand” attorneys have convinced thousands of people that a Living Trust is “written in stone.”
But the reality is that just not true.
Laws can and do change often at the federal and state levels.
If your trust isn’t updated to account for these changes, you might end up in Probate court even though you have a living trust.

Most of my clients over the last 20 years have been hard-working Americans who were totally unprepared for the legal complexities of Probate Court. In some states, Probate can cost up to 7% of the total value of your assets.
The Family Plan utilizes state-of-the-art planning strategies to make sure your assets, and more importantly, your family, won’t have to endure this archaic system after your death.
What the “one-night-stand” attorneys left out of their sales pitch is that even if your existing Living Trust is set up to avoid probate right now, it’s not going to always stay that way.
Your assets may not have been transferred properly into your trust at the time of creation.
It may be that new assets were acquired without being transferred into the trust, your trust documents will be subject to what I call the “Double Probate.”
This is a secret back door where Probate can sneak in and undo all the hard work you put into setting up your trust.
Don’t worry, if you don’t already have a Living Trust our Family Plan will create a new one for you.
However, if you already have a Living Trust, we can upgrade it to the Family Plan, preserving your original intentions.
Only this time, your documents will work as you intend and stay up-to-date.
Your first priority is probably avoiding Probate, but did you know there are a host of other legal predators out there that can attack your family and your money?
I call these the “4 Dirty Secrets” of Living Trusts.
Some of these, such as the Adult Guardianship/Conservatorship Court Abuse can rob you of your freedom, your dignity, and your money while you’re still alive.
A Plain-Old Living Trust doesn’t shield you from these threats.
A Family Plan does.
Living Trusts are Outdated

Yes, the Family Plans integrated traditional Estate Planning documents into a powerful armada that protects you and your family from Probate and other legal threats. (Unlike that stack of papers out in your garage.)
