Corporate Fiduciary Representation

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInLeft”]

Fiduciaries undertake duties that require them to conduct themselves with a standard of care, good faith, prudence and loyalty to the beneficiaries of the wills, trusts, or other governing instruments. Fiduciaries appointed as trustees or executors are held to a very high standard of conduct. We counsel corporate and individual fiduciaries on a wide variety of matters. We are experienced with counseling fiduciaries to handle these issues including dealing with estate and trust beneficiaries, as well as tax planning and the various tax issues that may arise during an estate or trust administration.
