How much power does a trustee have over a trust?

What are the three duties of a trustee?

There are five general duties of the Trustee to be prudent, to carry out the terms of the Trust, to be loyal to the Trust, to give the Trust their personal attention and to account to the beneficiaries of the Trust. The Trustee must act reasonably and competently in all matters of the Trust.

Why do trusts need trustees?

The creator of the trust, known as the grantor, must appoint a trustee to administer the wishes outlined in the trust. The role typically involves overseeing investments, distributing funds ing to the trusts terms and ensuring compliance with legal and fiduciary obligations.

What can a trustee do and not do?

A trustee must abide by the trust document and the California Probate Code. They are prohibited from using trust assets for personal gain and must act in the best interest of the beneficiaries. Trust assets are meant for the benefit of the trust beneficiaries and not for the personal use of the trustee.

What is the role of a trustee in a trust?

Is a trustee the same as the owner of a trust? The trustee of a trust is not considered the legal owner of the trusts assets in the traditional sense. Instead, the trustee holds legal title to the trust property, but they do so for the benefit of the trust beneficiaries, who hold equitable title.
