Setting Up A Living Trust

A living trust is a legal entity to which your assets can be transferred and managed by a person, including yourself or a corporation, such as a bank or trust company, called a trustee.

Revocable living trusts are used as a substitute for Wills.

There has been a lot of press recently regarding living trusts as they are heavily marketed by vendors of living trusts by exaggerating the costs and delays in the probate or administration of an estate. Another reason for all the press surrounding living trusts, is that sanctions have been imposed upon some of these companies by the Pennsylvania Attorney General.

There are disadvantages to a living trust. First, beneficiaries have no automatic legal right to the notices required for estates. Trustees of living trusts may be subject to personal liability, even after the funds have been distributed. Also, unlike personal representatives who have broad legal authority, the trustees of living trusts have no authority beyond assets placed in the trust. You do not need to have a living trust. The only reason would be to avoid probate. However, in Pennsylvania, probate is relatively simple as in comparison to many other states. Either way, it is best to consult an experienced attorney who can guide you in the right direction.
