Circuit Court probate under Oregon's probate code addresses appointment, notice, claims, inventory, accounting, and distribution. A simple-estate affidavit is a limited alternative, not a substitute for every estate.
- A simple estate may include no more than $75,000 of personal property other than manufactured homes and no more than $200,000 combined real property and manufactured homes. ORS 114.515 generally requires a 30-day wait and the statutory affidavit and notice process.
- Property in another state, beneficiary designations, survivorship title, and trust ownership can follow different administration paths.

ORS chapter 130 is the Oregon Uniform Trust Code and governs creation, administration, trustee duties, modification, creditor rights, adviser powers, and related proceedings.
- Directed-trust law: Yes, through Oregon's trust-adviser statute. ORS 130.735 permits a trust instrument to require direction or approval and limits a trustee's liability under the statute unless the trustee acts with reckless indifference or specified misconduct.
- A governing-law clause alone does not settle court jurisdiction, fiduciary duty, tax residence, creditor treatment, or another state's public policy.

Oregon generally uses the statutory lives-in-being plus 21 years or 90-year alternate vesting period in ORS chapter 105, subject to exclusions such as qualifying stewardship trusts.
- DAPT / self-settled protection: No broad DAPT regime for an ordinary self-settled interest. ORS 130.315 generally allows a settlor's creditor to reach the maximum amount distributable to or for the settlor, subject to statutory exceptions.
- Duration and creditor results depend on the instrument, creation and transfer dates, retained powers, statutory exceptions, and the law a court applies.
