What Is the Difference Between
a Will & a Trust?
Wills
Wills differ from a trust in a few ways. A will only goes into effect when the person who makes the will dies and it is formally recognized by the court.
Trusts
A revocable living trust goes into effect at the time it is signed. Should the person who established the trust be unable to manage the assets at any time, the successor trustee will take over that responsibility.
