I want to amend my Trust in case I outlive my beneficiary to my trust. How do I find correct language for state of Georgia and do myself

Loraine M. DiSalvo
Answered by attorney Loraine M. DiSalvo
Estate Planning lawyer at Morgan & DiSalvo, P.C.
Assuming it was drafted even half-decently, your trust should state in it what you need to do to amend it. And yes, legally speaking, as long as you follow the requirements you can amend your trust yourself. But doing so is likely a very, very, very, very, very, very bad idea. Please do your desired beneficiaries a huge favor, find a good, experienced, estate planning attorney, and have the attorney help you make any changes that are needed or desired. It is so easy to overlook or mess up important details if you don't know what you're doing. Best wishes to you.

Does probate apply to this situation and who is responsible?

Answered by attorney Norman Harry Green (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Irsfeld, Irsfeld & Younger LLP
Who is responsible? For what? If he owed Aunt money and she wants to sue the people who took his belongings for the smaller of fair market value of what they took or the amount owed, she can do that, but it will be time-consuming and expensive.

What do I need to do to give property over to someone else?

Jeremiah D Raxter
Answered by attorney Jeremiah D Raxter (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Raxter Law
Depending on how recently you inherited the property, or if you haven't accepted the gift you can disclaim your interest. Without more facts it is impossible to give you a clear answer. Good luck in your search for an attorney.
