In the United States, living trusts are frequently used in estates, the most typical being the Revocable Living Trust ( Revocable Living Trust ). Establishing a Revocable Living Trust and making your estate a trust estate generally has the following advantages

( 1 ) During your lifetime, you are free to own ・ and manage your property as you always have.
( 2 ) You can appoint a person whom you trust as Successor Trustee ( Successor Trustee ) in advance, so that if you become unable to manage your property due to illness or old age, you can leave the property to that person.
( 3 ) Upon death, the trust estate is not subject to probate ( court-supervised probate ) and can be distributed to the beneficiaries by the successor trustee or arranged to continue to be administered for the beneficiaries.
