Can a asset protection trust void your mothers last will and testament?

Any property that was transferred to a trust during life is not owned by the decedent after their death. That is the whole point behind trusts. The trust owns the property. A Will can only distribute property owned by the decedent at the time of their death. If your mother left you certain property in her Will but had transferred it to a trust during her life then that property is gone. It cannot pass by her Will. A trust cannot "void" a Will. An "asset" protection trust is intended to protect assets from creditors, the government and would be heirs.
