As an estate planning attorney, one of the questions I get the most is how can I be sure that my kids aren't going to just waste my money away once I'm gone?
Most are concerned that there is nothing they can do, and their adult children are just going to spend their inheritance away without a care for what their parents would have wanted. And we also get many clients that think their family members should be just fine on their own, but want to save their kids some of the financial burden of dealing with their affairs when they are gone. The solution for both of these clients is an easy one: get a living trust.
