Interview with Brenda Sanchez
Good evening, Moreno Valley, and welcome back to our local news segment. Tonight, we’re diving into the complex world of estate planning with a trusted expert: Steve Bliss, a probate attorney right here in Moreno Valley.
Steve, thanks for joining us.
Understanding Trusts
Steve, many people hear the word “trust” and immediately think it’s something only for the wealthy. Can you demystify that notion and explain why trusts are a valuable tool for everyday individuals?
“You’re right, Brenda, there’s often a misconception that trusts are solely for the affluent. However, they can be incredibly beneficial for anyone looking to protect their assets, ensure their wishes are carried out after they’re gone, and potentially minimize estate taxes,” explains Steve.
“Let me give you an example. A common type of trust is a Revocable Living Trust. This allows individuals to maintain control over their assets during their lifetime while designating how those assets will be distributed after they pass away. Consequently, it avoids the often lengthy and public process of probate.”
The Benefits of a Revocable Living Trust
“Furthermore,” Steve continues, “a Revocable Living Trust offers privacy, as its terms are not part of public record like a will. It can also be amended or revoked while the individual is still alive. This flexibility makes it an attractive option for many people.”
Steve goes on to explain that about 70% of Americans don’t have a will or trust in place (Source: Caring.com). “This leaves their loved ones vulnerable to potential legal battles and financial hardship during an already difficult time,” he cautions.
“I remember one instance where a client passed away without a trust. Their children ended up in a heated dispute over the division of assets, resulting in significant emotional stress and legal fees. It was a heartbreaking situation that could have been avoided with proper planning.”
