Trust Administration

  • The Responsibility

    When a loved one passes, the legal and financial responsibilities can feel immense. If you have been named a Successor Trustee, you have a fiduciary duty to manage and distribute assets according to the law. You don't have to navigate this complexity alone.

  • Our Role

    Legal Compliance: We ensure all statutory notices, filings, and sub-trust funding are handled precisely to shield you from personal liability.

    Financial Oversight: Utilizing our CFP® background, we help oversee asset valuations, financial considerations, and accounting requirements.

    Conflict Resolution: We act as a professional buffer to ensure the process remains transparent and minimizes friction between beneficiaries

    Initial Review: We analyze the Trust document to determine your specific duties and immediate deadlines.

    Asset Marshalling: We assist in identifying, valuing, and titling assets under the Trust’s authority.

    Distribution: We guide the final allocation of assets, ensuring all debts and taxes are satisfied first.
