How Trusts Help You Avoid Probate
A Will and a Trust are two common ways to determine how your property will be distributed after your death. If you don’t have either, your assets will be distributed according to the State’s law of intestate succession. 84 O.S. § 213. “Intestate” means “without a will.” In other words, the court will decide who inherits your property based on legal guidelines, not your personal wishes.
