Testamentary Trust vs Living Trust: Why a Living Trust Is Usually Better for Your Family // Should you rely on a testamentary trust in your will or set up a revocable living trust now? Many families hear both terms and assume they’re basically the same. They’re not—and choosing the wrong one can drag your loved ones into probate, extra costs, and unnecessary court supervision. In this video, Estate Planning Attorney Edmund Yan explains testamentary trust vs living trust in clear, simple language and shows why a funded living trust is usually a better tool for parents and homeowners who want to avoid probate and protect their children.

You’ll learn:
What a testamentary trust is and how it differs from a living trust
How probate works when your trust is created under a will
How control, privacy, and costs compare between a testamentary trust and a living trust
How these choices affect minor children, blended families, and special situations
When a testamentary trust might be used, and why a living trust is usually the wiser choice
