/24-7PressRelease/ - NAPERVILLE, IL, March 21, 2008 - All-inclusive manual makes creating a living trust simple—and worthwhile
Death is something that few people like to discuss or even contemplate, but being prepared for the inevitable—whether it happens next year or decades from now— can save surviving family members much stress and expense. The Complete Living Trust Kit is a guidebook for everyone. It is the all-inclusive manual — complete with a glossary and numerous resources and instructions — for how to avoid the lengthy and frustrating legal process that follows the loss of a loved one. The disconcerting truth is that the legalities surrounding death can be complicated and time-consuming, and could waste precious time that should be reserved for grieving with family and friends.
This book outlines the different ways to avoid the tangles and snares of the probate system, including life insurance contracts, pay on death and joint tenancy accounts, retirement accounts and various types of trusts.
Discover:
- The steps involved in the probate process, from the petition and hearing, to the execution of the will (if there is one) to the closing of an estate and attorney's fees
- Alternatives to the probate system, the most common of which include life insurance, retirement plans, land trusts and pay on death bank accounts
- The advantages offered by a living trust, such as a timely distribution of assets to beneficiaries, confidentiality, and minimizing the emotional distress
- And much more
