Its important to know what you want to change and where in your trust document this information lives (such as the article number youre amending). Fill out the amendment form. Complete the entire form. Its important to be clear and detailed in describing your changes.
California law, specifically the California Probate Code, does not universally mandate that trust amendments must be docHubd. However, the formalities for amending a trust depend on the terms set forth in the original trust document itself.
A trust amendment must be properly executed in order to be valid. This means that the amendment must be signed and witnessed by the trustor (the person who created the trust). You should consult with an estate planning attorney to ensure that the amendment is properly executed.
Amending a revocable trust, however, requires at most a docHubd signature. There is often no need for you to sign a trust amendment in your attorneys office. As more people are living longer, the need to plan for incapacity is more important than ever.
