What are the disadvantages of a pour-over will?

There is only one docHub disadvantage to a pour-over will. Like a traditional last will and testament, this type of will must go through the probate process, which can be time-consuming. It can take many months before the distribution of assets.

What does pour over mean in a trust?

With a pour-over will, any assets not included in your trust are automatically transferred to your trust after you pass away. Think of it as a kind of safety net, capturing any property you didnt transfer to your trust while you were alive.

One common method is to create a revocable trust. A revocable trust allows you to maintain control of your property during your life, and decide how the property is distributed after death, without needing to go through probate court.
