This Manual is intended to assist you in carrying out these duties and actions.


        Before we go further, please note that the Trustor(s) may have established other trusts,
        besides the Living Trust, during his or her lifetime (or even in his or her Will).   These other
        trusts  fall  within  many  different  types,  including  (but  not  limited  to)  an  Irrevocable  Life
        Insurance Trust, an IRA Inheritance TrustSM, a Gifting Trust, a Personal Residence Trust, a
        Charitable Trust, etc.   As you will see in the checklists contained in Chapters 3, 4 and 5 of
        this Manual, one of the very first tasks you will need to undertake is locating any and all
        trusts or other pertinent legal documents that may exist other than just the Living Trust.
        You may need to coordinate your actions, as Successor Trustee of the Living Trust, with the
        provisions  of  these  other  documents.      There  may  even  be  different  people  serving  as
        Trustees of these other trusts with whom you will need to coordinate.  One way to check
        on whether there are other pertinent legal documents involved is to contact the estate
        planning attorney who created the Living Trust.   This may be a good reason, as well as
        many  others,  to  arrange  a  consultation  with  the  estate  planning  attorney  before  even
        proceeding with any actions laid out in this Manual.





             Whether or not the Living Trust or other Trusts were prepared by Family First
             Firm,  you  may  obtain  a  free  initial  consultation  (if  you  qualify)  with  an
             attorney  of  the  Firm  by  calling  us  at  1-833-FL-SENIOR  (1-833-357-3646)  and
             setting up an appointment.
