You may have heard of everything in the pro column of using a living trust to handle your estate planning needs. Stay out of probate court, in most states. Lower the tax bill on your estate for the people you leave behind. Arrange a manager for property you grant to anyone too young to manage it on his or her own. The one negative for a living trust is that it does not provide legal guardians for minors. If you are a married couple or a single person with children that would require guardianship, you will need more than a living trust to plan your estate.
Handling the guardianship of your children is accomplished through something called a pour-over will. It exists in addition to your living trust to take care of any loose, but vital, ends. Create your living trust with LegalZoom and this pour-over will is included with your Massachusetts living trust.
