Who are the parties in a Trust?
A Trust requires three parties; the creator or Trustor; the Trustee to hold the assets, and; the beneficiary to receive the assets. Note that the same person can wear all three hats. The power of the Trust is that when you die the successor trustee can come in and take over, and distribute the assets without the need of the probate court. It can make the total process much faster and less expensive.
