Living Trusts for Everyone

Ronald Farrington Sharp is an attorney who concentrated on family law and divorce for the first half of his career before gradually shifting the focus of his practice to the areas of trusts, estate planning, and probate. The firm he established in 1975 works closely on a referral basis with a variety of professionals in developing a comprehensive estate plan package. Sharp has personally prepared more than three thousand trusts and estate plans, and he is also the author of Winning the Divorce War (Allworth Press). He is married, has three adult children and one grandchild, and divides his time between Michigan and Florida.

"Sharp makes a reasoned and strong case for the use of trusts as a complete alternative for wills. For roughly the cost of a lunch, Living Trusts for Everyone can . . . equip the average American with enough thoughtful questions to ensure that his or her lawyer is doing all that s/he can to protect that person’s assets. For that alone, it belongs on your reading list." —Logan Lo, New York Journal of Books
