Trust Me, It’s Complicated is the estate planning podcast from Marshall Law where real families get real clarity—without the legal jargon. Attorney John Marshall breaks down estate planning, trust administration, probate, guardianship, tax law, Medicaid planning, and business-law essentials in a way that’s approachable, educational, and occasionally funny (because yes… this stuff is complicated). Each episode helps you protect your wishes while you’re alive, reduce stress for your loved ones after you’re gone, and make confident decisions when life forces hard next steps.
Expect straightforward answers to the questions families ask every day—like “Do I need a will or a trust?” “What is a ladybird deed?” and “How do I choose a successor trustee?”—plus guidance for beneficiaries navigating creditors and the often long, drawn-out probate process.
