Understanding Funding Your Living Trust
Why and How to Transfer Your Assets To Your Revocable Living Trust
5. What happens if I forget to transfer an asset?
Along with your trust, your attorney will prepare a "pour over will" that acts like a safety net. When you die, the will "catches" any forgotten asset and sends it to your trust. The asset will probably go through probate first, but then it can be distributed according to the instructions in your trust.
