Re: public testament

Publication would occur only if there was a Probate proceeding, these are Court records and are, therefore, open to the public for viewing, usually.

This is actually one of the main resons people use trusts. They are not Probated and, therefore, not a part of any public record.

If you would like to discuss this matter further in a more private forum, please feel free to contact me directly at the email address provided by LawGuru or through our firm�s website located at PasadenaEstatePlanning.com
