What is Power of Trustee?

 

Power of Trustee is like giving someone you trust the legal authority to manage assets or property on your behalf. It's a way to ensure your assets are protected and managed according to your wishes, even if you're unable to do so yourself.

 

Why Might Someone Need Power of Trustee?

 

Estate Planning: It's a proactive way to plan for the future and ensure your assets are managed properly, especially in complex financial situations.

 

Incapacity Planning: If you become incapacitated due to illness or injury, Power of Trustee allows you to designate someone to manage your assets on your behalf.

 

Asset Protection: Power of Trustee can be used to protect assets, such as property, investments, or business interests, ensuring they're managed responsibly and in your best interest.

 

How Power of Trustee Works:

 

  • Choosing a Trustee:

 

You'll choose someone you trust to be your trustee. This person will have the legal authority to manage your assets and make decisions on your behalf.

​

  • Types of Trusts: There are different types of trusts, including:

Living Trust: Created during your lifetime and can be revocable or irrevocable.

Testamentary Trust: Created through your will and goes into effect after your death.

Special Needs Trust: Designed to provide for a loved one with special needs without jeopardizing eligibility for government benefits.

​

  • Legal Documentation: We'll help you prepare the necessary legal documents, including the Trust Agreement, to ensure your assets are protected and managed according to your wishes.

​

  • Trustee's Duties: Your trustee will have specific duties outlined in the Trust Agreement, such as managing investments, paying bills, distributing assets, and ensuring your wishes are carried out.

​

  • Communication and Collaboration: We'll facilitate open communication between you and your trustee, ensuring everyone understands their roles and responsibilities.

​

  • Regular Updates: It's important to review and update your Trust Agreement periodically, especially if your circumstances change or if you want to appoint a new trustee.

​

  • Revocation: You have the right to revoke or amend your Trust Agreement at any time if you no longer wish for your designated trustee to manage your assets.

​

  • Education and Support: We'll provide guidance and support throughout the process, answering any questions you may have and ensuring you feel confident in your decisions.

​

Our goal is to empower you to protect and manage your assets effectively, ensuring your legacy is preserved for future generations.
