How much does a living trust cost?

A living trust set up by an attorney usually costs about 1,500 to 3,000 dollars or more, depending on complexity and where you live. Online services can do it for a few hundred dollars, though they offer less personalized guidance. Remember that the trust only works if you actually retitle your assets into it, which takes some effort. For people who want to avoid probate, many find the cost worth it.
