Frequently Asked Questions
A Joint Living Trust is a legal document created by a married couple that allows them to manage their assets together during their lifetime and specify how those assets will be distributed after their death. It helps avoid probate and can include provisions for children.
A Children's Trust is a provision within a Living Trust that outlines how the assets will be managed and distributed to children. It allows parents to set specific terms, such as age milestones or educational requirements, ensuring responsible use of the inheritance.
Yes, a Joint Living Trust can be modified or revoked by both spouses as long as they are alive and competent. It is advisable to consult with a legal professional to ensure that any changes comply with state laws.
If one spouse dies, the Joint Living Trust typically continues to operate, with the surviving spouse maintaining control over the assets. The trust provisions will dictate how the assets are managed and distributed after the death of the surviving spouse.
While a will is important for estate planning, a Joint Living Trust can provide additional benefits such as avoiding probate and ensuring privacy. It is often recommended to have both a will and a trust for comprehensive estate planning.
Is This Form Right For You?
Use This Form If:
- Individuals who are married and have children often seek to establish a Joint Living Trust to ensure that their assets are distributed according to their wishes after their passing. This legal document helps avoid the lengthy and costly probate process, providing peace of mind to families.
- For those looking to protect their children's inheritance, a Living Trust with a Children's Trust provision is essential. This allows parents to set specific terms for how and when their children receive their inheritance, safeguarding their financial future.

Do Not Use If:
- – This form is not appropriate for individuals who have significant debts or complex financial situations that may require specialized legal advice. In such cases, a more tailored approach may be necessary to protect assets.
- – If one spouse has children from a previous relationship, additional legal considerations may be required to ensure all parties are treated fairly. A Joint Living Trust may not adequately address these complexities without further customization.
- – Couples who are not legally married should not use this form, as it is specifically designed for married couples. Unmarried partners may need to explore other legal options for estate planning.
