To assist you in setting up a trust, a trust lawyer is needed who can provide meaningful legal help to the trustee, the person who is in charge managing the trust. The trust attorney’s tasks also include drafting documents intended for the protection of the assets against lawsuits and taxes.
The trustee is the legal owner of the property in trust, as fiduciary for the beneficiary or beneficiaries who is/are the equitable owner(s) of the trust property. Trustees thus have a fiduciary duty to manage the trust to the benefit of the equitable owners.
To this end the law has imposed on executors and trustees a duty to account beneficiaries. … A beneficiary entitled to an interest in remainder in an estate has a right to access all information about the estate and has a right to see estate documents as it is information about that beneficiary’s own property.
