Can I Really Avoid Probate with a Trust? Should I? (Zoom)

REGISTER HERE.
Probate is a process that people often wish they could avoid. But is that possible? Well, yes…and no. There are some techniques available that can be used to avoid the probate process such as a living trust, but that does not mean you avoid the probate fee!
In this session, learn from Madison-based estate and elder law Attorney Erin Duques about the probate process and how trusts (and other probate avoidance options like using joint accounts) can be utilized to avoid probate, as well as the pros and cons of each. Additionally, Attorney Duques will discuss the most common circumstances in which avoiding probate would be advisable and why, as well as provide an overview of both how probate and a trust work as part of an estate plan.
