There are a variety of different types of trusts which may be created depending multiple factors and circumstance. This is why it is best to retain experienced legal council.

Testamentary trusts are designed to dictate the distribution of assets after that person passes away. Inter vivos trusts differs most notably in that they allows for distribution of assets while the trustee is still alive. Furthermore, trusts can be modified to be revocable, meaning a trustee may dissolve the trust at a later time, whereas an irrevocable trust cannot be dissolved.
