October 17, 2009: This book did exactly what I wanted. It gave me good information on amending my Revocable Trust including how to do it without needing a lawyer.
It did not mention the Legal Zoom as a possibility but I came to the conclusion that that was an option, too.In reading other parts of the book on trusts in general, I discovered that my Estate Lawyer made mistakes or ommissions in my trust that have caused me grief that could have been avoided had I been able to read this "Dummies" book first.I would recommend reading this book first even if you plan to use an Estate Attorney instead of doing it yourself.Read before dyingby drobbia

July 11, 2009: -Realizing that 50% of the doctors graduate in the bottom half of their class, I needed something before a major operation. Since I never planned on dying, I never bothered to write out a will in the past. Happy I bought the book to guide my wife and me through the process. Saved bucks on a atty or on-line source. In retrospect, since I have little left but bills to pass on after the recession and medical fees - it may have been superfluous but comforting.
