What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
My husband was the successor trustee / beneficiary of his parents' revocable living trust. He needs to transfer the house into his name, I believe, then we want to create our own living trust and have the house put into that. We have heard there is a 2-year time limit of some kind, and we are getting close to the 2 years since his mother passed away.
This is a second marriage for both of us (with stepchildren), so whatever new trust is created will have special provisions to take that into consideration.
My question is - besides having an attorney help us, what are some "official" titles of professionals that also do estate planning? I don't think I want to go with a "do-it-yourself" trust under these circumstances, but also don't know that we want to go with the time and expense of an attorney. There are so many options on the internet... would just like to know the differences between the different people who do this sort of thing.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
