Web Link - Wills of the Famous

CourtTV's Wills of the Famous allows you to see the wills of various celebrities, from Joe DiMaggio, Marylin Monroe, Elvis and even Princess Di.

You'll notice that some of them don't have much information for our prying eyes to see. This is because their living trust owned thier assets during life, which controlled who got thier "stuff" and when they got it. This way, the public does not see exactly who inherited, and who did not. To some, this privacy is extremely valuable.

If you are interested in why you may prefer a living trust centered estate plan rather than a will based plan, contact an estate planning attorney today.
