If you are married and a California resident, and you own a home, you will need a joint revocable living trust as the primary document in your California estate plan. Since you are a California resident, most, if not all of your assets will be community property.
While Trusts may not be as critical for DINK couples as for those with children, they can still offer advantages. Revocable Living Trusts provide privacy, streamline asset transfer, and can bypass probate for chosen beneficiaries.
Couples without children may want to leave their assets to organizations that have impacted their lives, such as charities, religious groups, or their alma maters in addition to their family members and friends. Trusts can ensure these assets are distributed according to their wishes.
Trusts offer amazing benefits, but they also come with potential downsides like loss of control, limited access to assets, costs, and recordkeeping difficulties.
avoid probate Property in your revocable living trust doesnt go through probate after your death. (See the State Bar of Wisconsins pamphlet, Probate: Answering Your Legal Questions.) If, however, you die leaving property that never got transferred to the trust, probate usually will be required.
