FAQs About Revocable Living Trusts

What families want to know

  • Why should I consider a living trust in Arizona?

    In Tucson and throughout Arizona, avoiding probate can save your family time, money, and stress. A revocable living trust ensures your assets are distributed efficiently and privately. It also allows you to plan for incapacity and maintain control of your assets while you’re still alive. This is especially helpful for families with property, children, or unique care needs.

  • Is a trust better than a will?

    Not better—just different. A will names guardians and distributes assets, but it goes through probate. A trust allows your family to skip that process and keep things private and simple. Many families in Tucson use both a will and a trust to ensure full protection.

  • Can I change my trust after it’s created?

    Yes, and that’s one of the best features of a revocable living trust. As your life changes—whether you move, gain new assets, or grow your family—you can update the trust accordingly. We make those updates easy and stress-free.

  • Do I need to transfer my assets into the trust?

    Yes. The trust only protects what’s actually titled in its name. We help you properly fund your trust by transferring assets like your home, accounts, and property into it—so it works when your family needs it.

  • Do you offer support for Spanish-speaking families?

    Absolutely. We’re proud to serve English and Spanish-speaking clients throughout Tucson and Southern Arizona. Your language, your culture, and your comfort matter in every part of the planning process.
