Elena:
Margaret had always taken care of everything—her family, her home, her finances.
But when her husband passed and the paperwork started piling up, she realized how messy things could get without a plan.
So, she did something smart.
She set up a trust.
And when the time came—no court battles, no confusion, no stress for her kids.
Everything went exactly where she wanted it to go.
Simple. Private. Done.
Hey there—this is Elena Fields, and welcome to Trust and Will Talk: Peace of Mind Edition,
the show where we unpack legal topics without the legal jargon.
Today, we’re talking about something that sounds complicated, but really isn’t: trusts.
And no, I’m not talking about trusting your neighbor with your mail when you're out of town.
I mean revocable living trusts—and why they might be one of the smartest tools in your estate planning toolbox.
Here’s the short version:
A trust helps you control where your money and assets go—while avoiding the drama, delays, and costs of probate court.
It’s private.
It’s efficient.
And it’s designed to make things easier for the people you care about the most.
Now, I’m not a lawyer—
but I know someone who is: Jennifer Romanello, attorney at law and co-founder of Romanello & Rodriguez Law, P.A.
Jennifer and her team specialize in helping women—especially those navigating retirement, widowhood, or just looking to finally get things in order.
They’ll walk you through:
- What a trust is (and isn’t)
- Whether you actually need one
- And how to get it done without stress or overwhelm
