Real-life Stories—Fictitious Names

“My father died more than four years ago. His estate is still going through probate. We still don’t know what the total fees are yet, but we suspect they will be close to $100,000. When I heard of the living trust, I set one up for my family right away. My children are now protected from having to go through all the hassles, unnecessary legal fees, and heartache that I’ve been through.”

- Mrs. Willcott

“When my brother died, it took me 18 months to settle the estate and I couldn’t believe what the attorney charged. My brother had a modest estate and only one heir.”

- Mr. Davis

“I am so thankful that my husband and I decided to prepare our estate plan when we did. Six months after we signed our trust, my husband had a stroke. A year later, he died. I never thought that I would lose him at our age. I guess you never know.”

- Mrs. Johnson

“We never thought about preparing an estate plan until my husband became mentally disabled due to an auto accident. The problem now is that, due to his disability, I can’t make any decisions on his behalf without first consulting a judge. I can’t prepare the documents needed to protect our family’s future because my husband isn’t competent to sign them. My hands are tied.”

- Mrs. Owens
