What is a Living Trust ?
With a Living Trust, Probate’s cost, stress, and time are avoided and
your estate is distributed quickly and privately according to your wishes.
Why You Need a Living Trust
Control Your Estate
Your most valuable assets are your home and investment property. You can ensure a private and timely transfer to your family or partners with a Living Trust. You can also determine at what age your beneficiaries inherit.
Avoid Probate Court
Your family should control your estate – not the court system. A Will and Probate can tie up your estate for years and cost your family thousands of dollars and prolonged suffering. You deserve better.
Protect Your Family
With a Living Trust, you can provide asset protection for your children or other beneficiaries, especially if they have creditors, a pending divorce, a lawsuit, or a disability. You can also name guardians for your minor children.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a Will and a Living Trust?
A Will must be filed in Probate Court and states your wishes for the distribution of your estate at your death. If you do not have a Will, the court controls distribution.
A Living Trust is private and establishes complete control and protection of your estate now and after your death. Learn more
Why should Probate be avoided?
Probate is costly, it takes a long time, and because of the number of cases in the system, it is inefficient and burdens families.
Probate requires a minimum six-month claims period. The entire process can tie up your estate for an average of 18 months or more and cost thousands of dollars. Learn more
Does a Living Trust avoid Probate?
Yes. A properly drafted, signed, and fully funded Living Trust avoids the Probate process. Learn more

Tuohy Law Offices Testimonials
We had an awesome experience with Tuohy Law Office... Tom is a great attorney, wonderful, kind man, which is a rarity these days. Tom is very professional, patient and understanding. His staff is great and swift to help when needed. Make no mistake, if you found Tom, you've got a pearl.
Much easier than we thought. At first glance it seems overwhelming but Tom and his amazing staff have everything done after a few quick questions. With my wife and I both in law enforcement this had to be done to protect our child. What a great investment on his future!
They were available to answer questions. Their location and parking was convenient. Tom was very patient and thorough explaining things. Overall a good experience
I had the honor to be referred to Tom @Touhylawoffice and his staff which honestly was quite a privilege.He is a very kind, down to earth attorney with the willingness to share his knowledge.Our experience was very pleasant and welcoming. Tom and his staff took the time to be efficient and thorough during the consultation.Making sure the estate planning runs smoothly while answering any questions along the way. The one on one time Tom sets aside for his clients is priceless. I highly recommend Touhy Law.
Tuohy Law is the best place to go, in my case for setting up a living trust in Illinois. I have been thinking about it for a long time, but the firms I considered did not inspire confidence. A neighbor who retained Tuohy Law for similar work was happy to recommend Tom, and it’s a pleasure to give the firm a top rating. I had a great experience. Tom is a lawyer who inspires confidence and explains everything in plain English. Shelly, who runs the office, is very efficient and helpful. Both are friendly and put the client at ease. I was very satisfied with the whole experience.
