What They're Saying

Critics Review

“Ronald F. Sharp’s new book, the fourth in the “For Everyone” series, expertly addresses the rights and remedies of estate beneficiaries, seamlessly integrating trusts, wills, probate avoidance, and trust settlement… . The book provides practical strategies to defuse family conflict and offers astute advice on structuring an estate before death to minimize stress and prevent family estrangement. Whether read selectively by topic or cover to cover, it is an invaluable guide.”–David Delekta, CHFC, CLU, Regional Manager, Eagle Financial Group

Praise for Living Trusts for Everyone

“Sharp makes a reasoned and strong case for the use of trusts as a complete alternative for wills. For roughly the cost of a lunch, Living Trusts for Everyone can … equip the average American with enough thoughtful questions to ensure that his or her lawyer is doing all that s/he can to protect that person’s assets. For that alone, it belongs on your reading list.” –Logan Lo, New York Journal of Books

“If you want to know a good deal about estate planning and trusts but don’t want a four-hundred-page boring book to read, I highly, highly recommend getting this one. It’s short, to-the-point, and very informative.” –Free Money, Finance.com

“Ronald Sharp explains trusts in clear and easy-to-understand language, including one truth most lawyers don’t want to admit: a trust is often better than a will and less costly!” –Lonnie Mclane, Estate & Tax Consultants, LLC
