A last will specifies who inherits your property and who looks after minor children, making the estate administration process clearer.
With a revocable trust, you can manage your property without probate, keeping things private and flexible for any future changes.
Transferring assets into an irrevocable trust removes them from your estate, simplifying administration and reducing estate tax exposure.
These trusts preserve assets from being spent down for care, allowing more of the estate to pass to heirs as intended.
