Ethical Considerations in Serving as or Representing Executors, Trustees, and Other Fiduciaries
Do you regularly or even just periodically serve as a fiduciary for your clients’ estates and trusts? How often do you serve as counsel for a fiduciary? These are roles that many estate planning attorneys undertake without giving extensive thought to the ethical and practical challenges of such roles. This presentation will discuss these challenges, with topics ranging from naming oneself to serve as fiduciary to ascertaining appropriate legal and fiduciary fees to determining what to do when your fiduciary client engages in questionable activities.
Presented by Mary F. Radford, Marjorie Fine Knowles Professor of Law, Georgia State University College of Law, Atlanta, GA
