When the Settlor of a trust dies, it is the duty of the Trustee to administer the trust pursuant to its terms. Trustees are held to a fiduciary standard and the actions taken as Trustee must be in compliance with the law. Trust administration is heavily governed by the probate code. Beneficiaries are granted substantial rights pursuant to statutory and common law. Clients of the Law Office of Anne E. LeClair receive exceptional legal representation whether acting in a fiduciary capacity as a Trustee or receiving an inheritance as a beneficiary. We will guide you in understanding your rights and duties under the law. We understand that your legal needs have likely been created by the difficult loss of a loved one and will strive to provide you with the level of patience, compassion and empathy that you require.
