Keep your estate out of Conservatorship Court.
Because your assets are held in Trust, when you are no longer able, your chosen successor Trustee will have control; preventing the need for a Court-appointed conservator and a costly conservatorship proceeding in many cases.
Taking the extra care to plan your estate now can save your heirs a lot of time and inconvenience later.

It's about Legacy
Planning your estate and preparing your Revocable Living Trust and Last Will and Testament is one of the most important steps you can take in defining your legacy. Your distribution plan determines how your property and belongings are distributed when you pass away. As you can imagine, a lot of thought and strategy should go into your final bequests since they will be the last gifts you leave to your family, friends, and organizations that you cherish. Know that your final bequests also shape how others remember you.
Experienced lawyers who write Wills and Trusts should also be well versed in probate and trust administration. Your lawyer should help you choose a distribution plan and language with the goals of effecting your testamentary intent and surviving challenges from estranged family members.
If you use a revocable living trust or other way to distribute your belongings on your death, having a Will is your best backup and the cornerstone of your estate plan. Whenever we prepare a Trust, we also include a backup Will.
If you live in states with inheritance or death taxes, you should speak with a lawyer to find out your estate tax liability and whether planning can be done to avoid those taxes.
Because circumstances and laws change, you should review your estate plan every time you have a major life change or at least every five (5) to seven (7) years.
If you would like to have your Trust reviewed, especially if you have recently moved to Oregon or the Pacific Northwest, please contact our law firm today.
