Revocable Trusts Attorney | Ball Morse Lowe

What is a revocable trust?

A revocable trust or living trust is a legal agreement created during your life that can be revoked and amended. Its primary advantage is allowing assets to pass to the named beneficiaries according to the terms of the trust without being subjected to the probate process (any property not included in the trust will still be subject to the probate process). This can save a considerable amount of time, money and frustration.

When creating a revocable living trust, the grantor transfers the title of the property to an appointed trustee (both the grantor and the trustee can be the same person). Other than executing documents as trustee of the trust, this will have no effect on the use of the property during the grantor's lifetime. The grantor can still enjoy all the benefits of owning those assets without having to worry about probate.

Another advantage of a revocable trust is that it provides for planning during your incapacity. If you become incapacitated, the successor trustee you named will step in and manage the assets in your trust for your benefit without the necessity of a guardianship proceeding. A will does not provide any planning for incapacity.

A revocable trust is particularly beneficial for the following circumstances:

Providing for special needs beneficiaries
Establishing trusts for minor children
Providing for charities
Ensuring pets will be cared for after your death
Including provisions for individuals with substance abuse issues
Disinheriting a child or other heir
Avoiding multiple probate proceedings if you own property in multiple states
Protecting your children’s inheritance from creditors or risk of a failed marriage

The revocable trust is a foundation for an estate plan that will provide for you during your incapacity and allow for the seamless transfer of assets upon your death. The knowledgeable attorneys at Ball Morse Lowe can assist you in implementing a revocable trust.

I cannot thank Karen Pearson and her team enough for all the support they've shown me throughout my unfortunate divorce. With all the twists and turns thrown at my situation both in my personal life, but also my military career. This team always made me feel as though my case took priority. I will forever be grateful for them and highly recommend either of them to represent you as you drudge through your specific situation. Thank you again to Ball Morse Lowe team for everything you did on my behalf.

Jon Dean Green

I turned to Ball Morse Lowe PLCC when I needed my mother's estate probated in Oklahoma. It involved mineral rights and I live in California and my mother had not lived in OK for over 60 years. I wanted a firm that would do this correctly and be reasonable in cost. Brian Hill was a pleasure to work with. He and his staff were professional, knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. They made the experience of probate painless, explained things as we went along, and were clear in their expectation of what they would need from me to move the process forward. I am so glad I found them and appreciate deeply all they accomplished on my behalf.
