California Living Trust FAQs
A California Living Trust is a written document that places your assets into a Trust. This Trust becomes effective immediately upon the creation of the Trust itself. Under the Trust document, a Trustee is appointed. A Trustee is a person who controls the Trust and therefore controls the property contained in the Trust. The Trust document specifies exactly how your assets shall be distributed upon your death. A Living Trust can be revoked and may be modified. In addition, property can be added to the Trust at any time. A Living Trust must be signed, witnessed and acknowledged by a Notary Public. The creation of a Living Trust will allow your loved ones to avoid Probate after your death.
Wondering about the cost of living trust in California? Our office charges $950 for a complete estate plan for a single person and $1,500 for a complete estate plan for a married couple. A complete estate plan consists of the following documents: Revocable Living Trust, Certification of Trust, Pour-over Will, Durable Power of Attorney and Healthcare Directive.
The documents within your complete estate plan must be signed, witnessed and acknowledged by a Notary Public.
The notarizing and witnessing fees are included within the cost of living trust in California, as long as you are able to personally drive to one of our signing locations.
Normally, the living trust does not get filed in California, but the property that is re-titled into the name of your living trust would be recorded with the County Recorder’s Office within the state and county that the property is located.
