Trust Litigation
A trustee has the legal duty to manage the trust's assets in a prudent manner, provide clear and accurate reports to trust beneficiaries on a periodic basis, and distribute trust assets according to the terms laid down by the grantor of the trust. When a trustee fails to do so, the beneficiaries of the trust may need to initiate litigation to protect their rights and interests.
