#471 | Who Should Fund the Trust? Client or Attorney? 🤔 𝗠𝘆 𝗔𝘁𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗦𝗮𝗶𝗱 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆'𝗱 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗗𝗶𝗱𝗻'𝘁!
Here's a wake-up call from a recent client situation: Just because you signed trust documents doesn't mean your assets are actually IN the trust.
This one's about communication, responsibility, and what really counts as "trust funding."

Sometimes it's a misunderstanding. Sometimes it's a missed step. Either way, there's a lesson here worth listeningto.
