People Needed for Your Estate Plan: Revocable Trusts

Elder law attorney Jim Koewler joins Suzanne to talk about setting up your estate plan and the people needed to complete various documents, such as powers of attorney, wills, living wills, revocable trusts, and irrevocable third-party trusts. This segment covers revocable trusts.

Revocable Trust

  • Initial Trustee: Grantors (the people setting up the trust in the first place)
  • Successor Trustee (after initial trustees both diseased or physically/mentally unable to continue as trustee): Person who gets stuff done, meets deadlines, and doesn’t buckle under pressure (just like backup executor for Will)
