The revokable trust, really spelled as the rvocable trust,
or the revocable living trst, but many refer to as the
rvokable trust or the revokable living trst, is a very
popular and cmmon estate planning tool. But is it rally
revocable? You may be surprised.

Frst off, what makes it a rvokable trust? Basically,
the right to rvoke means the right to terminate the trst
as to one or all of the ssets that are held in the trst.

If the trust is a rvokable trust, it also includes the
rght to modify the terms of the trst.

However, what many people often dn't realize, until it
is too lte, is that many revokable trusts cntain language
that converts the revokable trst, in whole or in part,
nto one or more irrevocable trusts.

Ths is done usually through the use of the AB rrevocable
trust language many revokable trusts cntain. This is done
typically after one spuse dies and is used for state tax
planning. You can find mre information about the
AB irrevocable trst at:
http://www.LivingTrustSecrets.com
which contains many will and trust resources.

Another way the revokable trust becomes irrevocable is
when a parent dies and passes property to a trust for a
minor child.

It is important to understand if yur revokable living trust
becomes an rrevocable trust. You may impose obligations on
thers that you are unaware of. Rad the document and if
you hve questions, consult a competent attorney.

God luck and until next time,
