 About ten years ago, you put together Living Trust. You picked two of your three children to act as trustees. Unfortunately, you passed away. The two kids of yours that you selected as trustees all those many years ago are at each other's throats. Things are going to get expensive. In my 27 years of being an estate planning attorney, this exact situation has occurred several times. It ends up with family members taking sides, separate attorneys, and adding thousands to the cost of a trust administration. How can this situation be avoided? By having your estate plan reviewed every five to seven years, this review costs you little or nothing. If it uncovers no problems, great. But if family situations have changed, if relationships have changed, some kids do this, no matter what it is in your family, it needs to be looked at because that can really affect how smoothly your estate plan is implemented and it also affects family relationships. My experience can help you come up with a practical solution that can avoid unnecessary future problems. Look, your family is worth it.
