FAQs
Do trusts avoid probate in Maine?
A properly funded Revocable Trust can reduce which assets go through Probate, but it depends on what assets are in the Trust and how they’re titled.
What’s “funding” a trust?
It means transferring assets into the Trust (like retitling accounts or deeds) so the Trust actually controls them.
