We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

What are the pitfalls of a living trust?

The cons of a Living Trust Paperwork Overload. Establishing and maintaining a living trust often involves a substantial amount of paperwork. Record Keeping Challenges. Maintaining accurate records is crucial for the success of a living trust. Transfer Taxes and Refinancing. Creditor Concerns.

How does a living trust work when one spouse dies?

Under typical circumstances, the surviving spouse would become the sole trustee after the death of one spouse. The surviving spouse would control the shared property, and the personal property of the deceased spouse would be distributed to the beneficiaries.

What is the downside to a living trust?

Marital trusts typically allow the transfer of assets to the surviving spouse without incurring federal estate taxes at the time of the first spouses death. Gift Tax Exemption. Transfers to a marital trust may qualify for the unlimited marital deduction, effectively postponing federal gift taxes.

Can I do my own living trust in Illinois?

A living trust might be especially useful in Illinois because the state does not use the Uniform Probate Code. This means that a living trust has the potential to save time and money for your family. When it comes to creating a living trust, you can do it yourself or work with an attorney.

What assets cannot be placed in a trust?

Having the accounts in your trust will help if you become incapacitated. (2/3 of Americans will be incapacitated for some time in their lifetime). Banks are much more hesitant to honor powers of attorney today. I have never had hesitation from a bank to honor a successor trustee during incapacity.
