Single Living Trust

A member of our staff will contact you to go over the information you are about to provide us.

We have provided a blank area for comments at the very end.

The following is a questionnaire that will assist us in preparing your Living Trust documents. The advantage of revocable Living Trusts is that you can amend your Living Trust or even revoke it.

A revocable Living Trust is created by you, the Settlor, and defines the duties and responsibilities of the Successor Trustee (commonly referred to as the Executor) to carry out your wishes after your death according to your instructions. You are the Trustee of your own Living Trust while you are alive and well.

2. Beneficiaries

Gifts

Let's start with the special gifts: are there any special items (jewelry, vehicles, accounts, etc.) that you would like to leave to a particular person? If so, list them below.

Gifts get deducted before the balance of the estate is distributed to the beneficiaries.

If you wish to leave special gifts to anyone, please list below the gift and the person who should be the beneficiary of such gift.

DISHINHERING CLAUSE (OPTIONAL) – Enter the name and relationship of any relative you specifically do not want to receive anything from your Trust.

Most States do not allow a spouse or minor child to be totally disinherited.

People you would like to disinherit

Form Section 3

2. Beneficiaries

Beneficiaries of your estate

Beneficiaries: These are the people you would like to receive the trust property after your death. Include the percentage of the Estate that each Beneficiary will receive. You also have the option to nominate Alternate Beneficiaries if the Primary Beneficiary predeceases you. You have the ability to select the children’s of the Primary Beneficiaries as Alternate Beneficiaries, or to have the share of the Estate of the person that predeceases you, split among the remaining Primary Beneficiaries.

We prepared several fields for beneficiaries, not knowing how many you'll have. Once you have distributed 100% of the estate, please keep moving through the beneficiaries' pages, until you get to the next section (3. Custodian).

3. Custodians

If you haven't listed beneficiaries who are minors, then skip to the next page.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO YOUNGER BENEFICIARIES – If a younger beneficiary is to receive property under your trust, your Living Trust document gives your successor Trustee the option to:

(a) manage the property for the younger beneficiary until he or she reaches the “age for outright distribution”, or

(b) distribute the property to a custodian who will manage the property under California’s Uniform Transfer to minor’s Act (UTMA).

The default age for California is 18. In the meantime, your successor Trustee manages the property for the beneficiary and may make distributions for his or her support, comfort and education.

If you want to increase the default age for outright distribution to and age older than 18, list the older age here (optional).
