Personal Investment & Financial Planning Q`s - Revocable Living Trust


Expert: Bruce Julien - 5/24/2009

Question
Under what conditions would you recommend that a person get a Revocable Living Trust?

Other than avoiding probate and confidentiality, what are the advantages and disadvantages of a Revocable Living Trust?

Answer
No more reasons - you hit the only two. Many unscrupulous attys push them when unneeded I believe since they bill more. Good attys get you what you need. I do like trusts - just when they are beneficial

See an estate planning atty in your state for the followup

Good Luck Steven

Bruce
