Trust
If you currently have a trust, circumstances may arise that require reformation or amendments to the terms of the trust. Depending on the type of trust and the express provisions with the trust itself, this may require compliance with certain procedures and possible notice to those affected. To endure that no issues arise with your trust, you should consult with the Brea CA estate plan lawyers at Fridley Law Firm.
Why might you need to reform your trust?
Several circumstances may justify or require revisions to a trust. This may include:
- Death of a trustee or beneficiary
- Divorce or marriage
- Changes in tax and other laws
- Changes in the extent and nature of trust property
- Changing needs of the trustor, trustee or beneficiaries
In some situations, it may not be apparent that revisions are needed, even when they would be advisable. An attorney can help you address whether a trust needs to be revised.
