Revocable living trust structure

A revocable living trust structure diagram shows the people and assets connected to a trust during the grantor's lifetime and after incapacity or death. The grantor often creates the trust and serves as initial trustee, while a successor trustee is named to administer it later. The diagram can show assets titled to the trust, such as a residence or brokerage account, and the remainder beneficiaries who may receive property under its terms. Estate planners use this view to explain the arrangement without replacing the trust agreement. It is important to distinguish an intended transfer from an asset that has actually been retitled. The legal effect of a trust depends on its documents and the law of the relevant jurisdiction.
