What’s in a (Trustee’s) Name? August 2022
One of the most consequential decisions in your estate planning is who to name as trustee. The trustee’s level of knowledge, commitment, ability and skill will have an enormous impact on the intended purpose of your trust. Despite the importance of this decision, it is often given less consideration than the structure of your plan or choice of attorney. Even the most well-drafted estate plan will fail to achieve its purpose if the trustee you select fails to carry out their role properly.
