Bohonnon Law Firm, LLC - Connecticut Trust Actions and Estate Planning Lawyers

Trusts are common estate planning tools. Trusts are usually established either to save taxes or to provide for the management of a loved one's inheritance. A spouse, child, grandchild, niece or nephew, other family member or even friend can be the beneficiary of a trust. The person creating the trust desires to provide a benefit to a loved one, but prefers that a financial institution, professional or other individual manage the trust assets and make distributions to the beneficiary or beneficiaries.

A beneficiary or beneficiaries of a trust may disagree with the actions and conduct of the trustee. These disagreements often relate to one or more of the following:

• The amount of trust distributions to the beneficiary
• Preferential treatment of one beneficiary
• Losses related to the investment of trust assets
• Trustee fees or expenses
• Self-dealing by Trustee
• Conflicts of Interest
• Mismanagement of trust property
• Inadequate income generated by trust
• Poor tax planning
• Fraud
