Questions answered? Let's get started!
Governed by 760 ILCS 5/8.5, the certificate of trust is the document a trustee provides to a lending institution or other third party that certifies the existence of a trust and his/her authority to act on behalf of the trust.
The document presents only essential information about the trust in lieu of the actual trust document. It names the settlor of the trust and all acting trustees, as well as any successor trustees who may be named under the terms of the trust document. If there are co-trustees, it states the number of trustees required to authorize actions. In addition, the certificate identifies whether or not a trust is revocable and amendable, and who holds authority to revoke and/or make amendments. Certain information, such as the parties having a beneficial interest in the trust, remains confidential.
The recipient of a certificate of trust is not liable for any actions they may take based on false representations within the certificate (760(ILCS 5/8.5(f)). While notarization is not obligatory, a third party may require that the certification of trust be acknowledged.

Easy to use and able to individualize, which was important since I needed to print more than one doc. I just wish I had an option for a less expensive purchase - seemed like a lot for just a couple docs.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

The paperwork was fine but it was just paperwork. Georgia does not accept a paper form. The form must be transmitted electronically through a registered account. Using an attorney may have been the simple way to file the cancellation.
Thank you for your feedback, Dan. We’re glad the paperwork itself met your expectations. Recording requirements can vary by state and county, including how documents are submitted. We appreciate you sharing your experience and will review our product information to see where we can better clarify the recording process for Georgia customers.

It was easy to download. And your guide was informative as was the completed form for an example. But I wish that I had been able to edit the forms online and then print. My handwritten info is just not as crisp.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
