Truth About the Living Trust

By Gregory P Hawkins

Think any Living Trust will protect your family? Think again.

Many books and guides explain what a trust is, but few address a critical truth: a trust is a legal document whose words can make or break your family's future.

Experts warn that a trust must be drafted with precise language and specific provisions. If you miss even a small detail, your entire trust could be at risk or fail entirely. Poorly drafted documents lead to confusion, legal challenges and unintended distribution of assets.

Why this book is different.

Truth About the Living Trust: The Art of Proper Legal Preparation goes beyond the basics to show you what is necessary to craft a trust that actually works.

Gregory P. Hawkins, an estate planning attorney and Accredited Estate Planner, reveals how the nuances of wording, clauses and specific rules make your trust airtight.

What you'll discover inside:

- The hidden risks of generic templates: why trusts need clear, precise language and how specific provisions protect you and your loved ones, and how the absence of those provisions can have devastating consequences.

- How to avoid common drafting pitfalls
