Pierce Atwood provides comprehensive trust administration services to our clients. Our attorneys regularly serve as trustee or co-trustee of trusts and also provide legal advice and assistance to our clients serving in those fiduciary roles. Some of the services we provide include the appointment of trustees, preparation and approval of accountings, preparation of nonjudicial settlement agreements, and shepherding trust interpretation, modification, or termination matters through the courts. Our group is also experienced with administering charitable trusts and private foundations.
Representative Experience
When a senior level executive relocated to Maine we helped him to understand how his estate plan should change to comply with state-specific laws. We also helped to design an innovative trust structure to match the unique needs of his family.
