My wife died this month and I understand I need to have an amendment to my living trust. What do I need and how much will it cost. ?

Hi, I'm sorry for you loss. When you've done a living trust before with a lawyer, usually without incurring lawyer bills. There are a couple of ways to make amendment to your living trust. One is indeed to attach an amendment. Just be sure your changes -- what you want to delete and what you want to add -- are crystal clear. And when you sign it, get your signatures notarized, just like the original. Another way to go is to create a "restatement" of your trust. Basically, it's a new trust document that "restates" the original one, with the changes you want. Especially if you make multiple amendments over the years, this can be a cleaner, less confusing way to go.


Can a revocable trust be changed by a codicil?

Generally, a revocable trust is a living trust. The instrument that created the trust, sometimes called a Declaration of Trust, must set forth all the provisions of the trust including how and if it can be amended. Amendments to a trust must be attached to the original trust instrument. If the trust is recorded in the land records any amendments thereto must be recorded in the land records. Changes to a living trust are called trust amendments.A testator can also set forth a trust in their will. That type of trust is called a testamentary trust. A testamentary trust can be amended by a codicil.

How do you remove name from living trust?

To remove a name from a living trust, you typically need to amend the trust document. This involves drafting an amendment that specifies the removal of the individual, which should be signed and dated by the trust creator (grantor) in accordance with the trust's terms. If the trust is irrevocable, consult with an attorney, as the process may be more complex. Lastly, ensure that any changes are properly documented and that all relevant parties are informed.

Can a revocable trust be undone?

Yes. You can rewrite a revocable trust if you want to make substantial changes in the trust provisions. However, if you only wish to make minor changes that can be accomplished by an amendment to the trust that clearly identifies the provisions you want to revoke and then clearly states the substitution. Trusts should always be drafted by a professional who can review your situation, explain your options and draft a trust that will meet your needs and legal standards.
