I want to get legal advice

Estate planning, such as a revocable living trust, is not just for the extremely wealthy. Getting expert advice on this topic is essential, and if you live near eastern Pennsylvania and Framingham, Massachusetts, Miller Law Firm can provide it. But what is a revocable living trust?

A revocable living trust is a legal document that explains what will happen to your assets in the future. The trust lays out what can and cannot be done with your property and other assets during your lifetime, should you become incapacitated, and after your death. You can change the details of a revocable living trust agreement at any time with the help of a professional estate planning attorney.

Pros and Cons of Revocable Living Trust

There are many benefits to putting your assets in a revocable living trust agreement. One of the major benefits is that your estate will not become public knowledge when you die, which it would with a will that has to be taken through court. A living trust allows those details to stay within the family. Another benefit is that you can still use the assets in the trust while you are alive. A revocable living trust gives you the ability to decide exactly what you want done with your inheritance. It prevents family members from arguing about a will and also includes instructions for how and when minors can access the assets they inherit.

However, there are both pros and cons of revocable living trust agreements. A trust is more expensive to put in place than a will, as it takes more time, paperwork, and legal help. It also needs to be maintained throughout your life. There is no tax break associated with a revocable living trust, either. Assets placed in the trust can still be used to gain income and will be taxed. They do avoid probate fees, though.

How Much Does a Revocable Living Trust Cost?

Getting expert legal advice is vital when establishing a revocable living trust. This advice, of course, does not come cheap. Expect to spend a couple of thousand dollars on understanding and establishing your trust. However, the revocable living trust cost can be worth it if you are certain your attorney is the best.

Great help with estate planning

Steve did a great job of helping us with our estate planning. He gave us options and explained how each one would fit our situation. Once we decided how we wanted our estate set up, he was quick to follow up and get things in place. ...

A true humanitarian among attorneys.

Before entering elderly law. Steven was instrumental in supporting and guiding me in my discrimination suite against my employer. I have a disease called Meniere's disease, which causes cases of uncontrolled vertigo. I was hired by a rather large multi-billion dollar company to work as a B operator in one of their extrusion departments. They were well aware of my condition upon hiring me. In this department there are two types of operators. A and B. A operators were responsible for putting up the machines. They were responsible for fixing or making changes. They were also required to climb the high towers that fed the lines with the product. B operators were responsible for production, product inspection and wrapping. And they remained on the floor. After several years in their service. They decided that I could no longer perform my duties as required. Even though my responsibilities of a B operator did not include me climbing the towers. They also refused to make accommodations for me. They then decided to move me to another department and force me to take a pay cut. I knew what they were doing was illegal and against the Lilly act and advised them so. They proceeded to tell me they were in their legal rights and there was nothing I could do about it. I started looking for an attorney to help with my problem. One lawyer even told me "I should be thankful I even have a job!" Feeling defeated and about to give up hope. Steven answered my ad, and informed me that I was within my rights to seek legal aid in this situation. He walked me through the procedures step-by-step. And was always available to answer any questions, or to advise me on handling the ongoing difficulties with my employer. And knowing my financial situation, was willing to work with me on that as well. I won my case with him right there by my side supporting me to the very end! I cannot say enough about Steven. He is truly a wonderful attorney, and I have already recommended him to several people, and will continue to do so.

Great experience.

I hired Steve do defend a consumer credit matter that was dubious from the start.
He was knowledgeable and the case was successful along the lines he predicted.
I would definitely hire Steve again.
