Trust Administration and Disputes

“Trusts are a vital tool for securing your financial future and ensuring that your assets are protected. Upon your passing, a trust allows for the precise distribution of your resources to the individuals or entities you designate. Our goal is to ensure that your loved ones are cared for according to your wishes.”Stephen J. Lacey, Managing Member of Lacey Lyons Rezanka

Trust administration is a critical component of estate management in Florida, involving the careful oversight and execution of assets held within a trust. Governed by the Florida Trust Code, this process provides a comprehensive legal framework for the creation, management, and termination of trusts, ensuring that the interests of all parties – grantors, trustees, and beneficiaries – are protected under state law.

When disputes arise during trust administration, legal counsel is essential to safeguarding the rights of trustees, beneficiaries, and other involved parties. Our experienced attorneys are skilled in navigating the complexities of Florida’s Trust code and addressing issues such as breach of fiduciary duty, contested accountings, improper distributions, and challenges to trust validity. We represent clients in court proceedings, negotiate settlements, and provide strategic guidance to resolve conflicts efficiently and effectively.

At Lacey Lyons Rezanka, we understand the importance of ensuring that our client’s wishes are upheld and assets are distributed as intended. Whether through direct trust administration or resolving disputes – including when litigation is necessary – we are dedicated to protecting your legacy.
