FAQ

When Should You Put a Bank Account into a Trust?More specifically, you can hold up to $166,250 of real or personal property outside a trust and avoid full probate in California. However, if you have more than $166,250 in a bank account, you should consider transferring it into your trust.
The trust in no way protects your assets, so that reasoning is simply false. You should put your vehicles into your trust in order to avoid probate. Only those assets held by the trust will avoid probate.
