What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Tennessee. Several years ago my mom made out a will naming my oldest sister as executor. After attending some estate planning workshop my mom decided that a living trust would better serve her purposes. She filled out the worksheets in the trust package and had those notarized. She did not consult an attorney. None of her assets were transferred into the trust (we're talking minimal savings account and house worth less then 300k). Are these notarized worksheets really a legal trust? If not, is the will still legal? Hope mom is around for a long time, but do want her to have her affairs legally in order.
