What Is a Revocable Living Trust?
A Revocable Living Trust is a legal document that outlines:
Who inherits your assets (beneficiaries).
Who manages your estate after you pass (trustee & successor trustee).
How your assets are distributed without court intervention.
Unlike a Will, a Trust bypasses probate, meaning:
No court delays.
No public record of your estate.
No unnecessary legal fees.
You stay in control of your assets during your lifetime—and can update or revoke the Trust anytime.
