TheCalifornia revocable living trustis a document that allows a Grantor to specify how their assets and property should be managed during their lifetime and after their death. The assets designated to the trust may be managed by the Grantor only if the Grantor chooses to act as Trustee (person responsible for maintaining the trust), however, this option is only available with a Revocable trust. An Irrevocable trust can benefit the Grantor in other ways, such as protecting the Grantor from estate tax and creditors. Regardless of the type of trust created, all items in the trust are not subject to probate and will be transferred to the Beneficiaries immediately after the Grantor's death.
