With the authority a trustee holds over trust assets and the distribution of income, comes obligations to fulfill certain fiduciary duties, such as the duty of loyalty and the duty of impartiality, among many others. Generally, these duties require the trustee put the interests of the beneficiaries first, and failure to do so can subject the trustee to legal liability. Our goal is to identify potential issues in advance and tell you how to avoid them so legal action does not occur. Part of this support is helping you effectively manage trust assets and advises you on how to legally complete transactions involving commercial real estate or other corporate property held by the trust.
