JACK’S HANDY GUIDE TO TRUSTS–Staying Out of Court is intended for everyday people who become nominated as trustees or designated as beneficiaries of a trust in California. Easy to draft but difficult to administer, living trusts (so-called ‘inter-vivos’ trusts) can efficiently implement the distribution of assets, or they can degenerate into a costly and wasteful debacle if the trust administration is not handled properly in accordance with California law. Jack Forbes has crafted this book to help keep trust administration in the prudent control of the trustee for the benefit of the beneficiaries, and to keep it out of expensive, stressful and time-consuming court proceedings.
