Usually a debt collector won’t know if a living trust exists. Trusts are private documents and only disclosed sometimes. If trusts are set up properly they are never submitted to probate court (at least in the State of Utah).

A living trust can be an especially useful estate planning tool in an era where people are living longer and longer. If you're concerned about how to pass on your assets after you're gone, a living trust can help make the process easier on your loved ones, who won't have to deal with the red tape of probate. But what happens if you've gone through a living trust but are still very much alive? How will a debt collector know how to collect when there's no probate? They will send letters and attempt to communicate with the next of kin. Or they will sue the estate of the deceased.

You reside in the state where you are domiciled, meaning you have the subjective intent to remain there. I don’t think you can just pick and choose what state you can do joint custody. With that being said, if you’re moving states, please keep in mind that joint custody is a complex part of family law. Generally speaking, the states that are the most favorable to joint custody are those that promote a relationship between both parents and the child, and that work to protect the rights of both parents and the child. I believe all states will want to do this. I know that some states require a period of  mediation  or a parenting plan before joint custody is granted, and other states may have a preference for joint custody over sole custody. Additionally, some states require a court order for join...
