Living Trusts are Outdated
(Internal Data)
The percent of your assets that could go to Probate Fees
A revocable living trust is a legal document that allows you to manage your assets during your lifetime and transfer them to beneficiaries after your death, without the need for probate.
A living trust avoids probate because the assets are transferred into the trust during your lifetime, meaning they are not subject to the probate process upon your death.
A successor trustee is the person or institution appointed to manage your trust after your death or if you become incapacitated. They ensure that the trust assets are distributed according to your wishes.
Estate tax planning involves strategies to reduce the taxes your estate might owe after your death, including the use of trusts and charitable giving to minimize tax liability.
Without an estate plan, your assets will go through the probate process, and the court will distribute them according to Oregon state law, which may not align with your wishes.
