Many changes can affect your current estate plan. Additionally, all assets that you have acquired subsequent to the formation of your trust must be put in the trust’s name. If you take title to property in your own name at any time without disclosing the trust, you will undo the trust to this extent and risk having that asset(s) go through probate.
Bear in mind that a trust can only be changed by a formal amendment. A simple note in the margin of your document, or striking out of words, even next to your signature, is ineffective!

Remember, a Living Trust is only as good as it is kept current!
