As with preparation of an original living trust, an amendment to a living trust may have serious legal ramifications. It can seem very simple to change one sentence, or one provision in your trust, and believe that your updated wishes have been adequately reflected in your trust and will be enforced, but there are many legal issues to consider when even the most simple change is made to your trust. By explaining your objective to an experienced estate planning attorney that knows the law relating to trust drafting and trust administration, he or she will be able to identify any issues that can arise with your desired revision to your trust and ensure that the intended change will have the intended result and that your plan remains effective.
