What happens at the initial administration meeting?
At the initial administration meeting, your attorney will discuss a number of issues with your loved ones. The first order of business is ensuring an ongoing income for your spouse and any dependent children. A well-crafted trust document will always have arrangements for such immediate needs. Family members will be especially relieved to avoid the expense and stress of probate court proceedings which can be time consuming and greatly delay access to the estates assets. In contrast, a trust-based estate plan will offer your loved ones immediate access to your funds free of court interference.
