Pet Trusts: Part 2

Alisya Clayton • June 3, 2013

Pets are part of the family. When planning for the distribution of your estate, make sure that the pets you love receive proper care for the rest of their lives. To do this, you can prepare and execute a Pet Trust that sets money aside to provide for your pet’s needs. Like other trusts, you can nominate someone dependable to carry out your wishes, and you can name a “trust protector” to make sure that your wishes are followed. To ensure that your Pet Trust will be upheld, it must comply with the specific requirements of the California Probate Code. You should work with a lawyer who has handled Pet Trusts, and someone who has worked with pet owners.
