Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

It is clear from your question that you should hire an attorney to prepare the living trust. It is far too complicated to try to do it through self-help, though many people have tried (and quite a few have failed).

As a starter, do you even need a living trust? That is impossible for anyone to tell without reviewing your situation, and then only an experienced attorney which would know the correct answer.

There are many basic revocable trust kits out there online which one can use. A revocable trust may or may not be necessary in your situation and you would need to speak with a qualified attorney to find out what potential benefits it would have for you. Many basic revocable trust kits contain most of the standard clauses attorneys use as well, but they are not tailored to you individually and must be executed properly to take effect. In addition, it is important to properly title assets, etc. If you are looking for a more affordable approach to estate planning which still offers attorney involvement you may want to do an online search for "florida estate planning attorney online".

I agree with my colleagues. I suggest you speak with an attorney as to estate planning. I have had many clients come in to do a revocable trust to find that they really don't need one. I also have has several show up with one being done and charged a fortune to discover that it has no purpose. On line forms are good for getting you use to the language that is used by attorneys and giving you some insight as to what you might be able to understand. However, they are definitely not a tool to use to plan your own estate.
