WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A LIVING TRUST AND AN INTERVIVOS TRUST?
There is no difference except perhaps for the fee which you may be charged by your lawyer for the drafting of such a trust. An intervivos trust is just the Latin name for a living trust. A living trust is just the name for any trust which you have created while you are alive as contrasted to one that is contained within your will and does not become effective until your death. It sometimes seems that the more Latin you find in your documents, the more expensive they are.
