What the film shows

Checks each asset's title and beneficiary form against the trust and lists what is unfunded

Agents read the trust and every deed, statement and beneficiary form, compare each asset's current title with the exact title the trust requires, and flag what is unfunded or mis-designated. They draft the letter, form or deed for each institution; the attorney approves and the paralegal sends. A card moves to Confirmed only when a new statement, recorded deed or plan letter shows the trust's name.

Transcript

  1. Trust Funding Review checks every asset's title against the trust, for estate planning firms.

  5. Each card shows today's title beside the title the trust requires.
  6. A new statement names the Hallworth Family Trust, and the brokerage card moves to Confirmed.
  7. Karen's retirement plan still named her estate, so agents drafted the plan's own form.
