A trust is one way to help your loved ones avoid probate court following your death. Essentially, a trust arranges for one person, the trustee, to hold the legal title to the assets for another person, the beneficiary. You can serve as the trustee for your own living trust during your lifetime and maintain total control over the property that is held in the trust.
