However, the existence of a trust does not mean that the administration process will be simple.

Effective Advice for Trust and Estate Administrators

At the Law Offices of Bonnie Peters-Lawston, we handle trust and estate matters for a range of clients. Our cases have ranged from small to multi-million dollar estates. We are especially adept at handling complex cases involving large trusts and estates.

If you have been appointed as a trustee or an estate executor, it is important to understand your responsibilities. Trustees are given a great deal of authority and can be held personally accountable if they do not meet their obligations. We guide trustees through the trust administration process to ensure that they are fulfilling the requirements for the role.

Among other things, a trustee is responsible for collecting and managing the property of a trust. Under New York laws, trustees have broad authority to take the steps necessary to administer the trust, but there are some restrictions. We can help you understand your responsibilities as a trustee.

Frequently, the estate administration process requires an executor to handle both trusts and estate administration matters. Although an individual may create a trust with the intention to avoid probate entirely, this is not always possible, and the estate administrator may have to address property that is not incorporated into the trust.
