Customer Reviews

Great help!

Exactly what I was looking for to settle a trust. You need to know the basics of trusts but it fills in the rest of what you need to settle a trust.

Lawyer Finds Book Useful

As an attorney specializing in estate planning for 17 years, I found some good ideas in this book. However, there are a number of statements that are misleading at best and flat-out wrong (from a technical legal and tax standpoint), at worst. Still, your lawyer should be able to spot those and it's still a very worthwhile book, on the whole.

Required Reading BEFORE you die

Some repeated sad stories from his first book "The Living Trust". Once past these, there is some very useful info. Read it very carefully, and then take questions to his outfit, or your lawyer, or both. Then advise your next trustees so they know what is coming.
