Title: Legal Terms
Post by: yn9man on Wednesday 17 October 18 17:02 BST (UK)

Questions about two legal terms.

Is "mutual disposition and settlement with a spouse" considered a divorce decree or document?

What is a "trust disposition and settlement"?

Thanks.

No. I think it's what might loosely be described as a joint will made by a husband and wife.
