"My mom told me she has a living will. That way she's going
to avoid probate"I can't tell you how many times I've heard this when a new
person finds out I was a living trust lawyer.They go on to say, "She got one of those forms at the seniors'
center. You know, the one she can fill out herself. They even
witnessed it for her."I hate it when this comes up, because I have to set the record
straight, I have to let the person know that a "living will"
and a "living trust" are two different ins.
