The downside to irrevocable trusts is that you cant change them. And you cant act as your own trustee either. Once the trust is set up and the assets are transferred, you no longer have control over them, which can be a huge danger if you arent confident about the reason youre setting up the trust to begin with.
How Do I Make a Living Trust in Massachusetts? Choose whether to make an individual or shared trust. Decide what property to include in the trust. Choose a successor trustee. Decide who will be the trusts beneficiariesthat is, who will get the trust property. Create the trust document.
In Massachusetts, there are filing fees that will depend on the exact type of petition you wish to make. In order to create a general petition for the creation of a trust, the filing fee is $375 with a surcharge of $15.
A living trust in Massachusetts is created by the grantor, the person putting things into trust. As the grantor you must choose a trustee who is charged with managing the trust for your benefit while you are alive and distributing your assets to your beneficiaries after your death.
An irrevocable trust, as the name implies, cannot be revoked or amended once established. You cannot access or control assets as those duties are in the hands of the trustee. However, some irrevocable trusts can allow for dispositive provisions to be changed by means of exercising a limited Power of Appointment.
