Estate and Trust Services
Estate and Trust Services
When an individual is appointed as the independent executor under a will or as the trustee of a trust, the administrative and management responsibilities can be overwhelming. We can assist with investment administration and management, setting up the proper accounts and helping to move financial and other assets into the proper hands. We can also gather information and coordinate the preparation of any required tax filings, either income or estate tax related.
We can help family members understand the provisions in the planning documents and how best to proceed in managing them for the future. We work in concert with the appointed executors or trustees and estate and probate attorneys to make sure that the probate process works as smoothly as possible.
