This special guest edition of KrauseCAST features Peter Wall, Director of Fiduciary Services at True Link Financial!
Drafting attorneys and fiduciaries often have differing definitions of “Health, Education, Maintenance, and Support” (HEMS) discretionary distribution provisions contained in trusts.
This session will contain a comprehensive review of common law, Restatement (Second and Third) of Trusts, and the Uniform Trust Code regarding trustee discretion and distribution standards.
The presentation will cover special needs trusts (SNT) along with non-SNTs such as discretionary trusts, family and marital trusts, spendthrift trusts, and trusts for minor beneficiaries. Peter will also address:
- Trustee prudency and the duties of loyalty and impartiality
- Other esoteric discretionary distribution standards such as “comfort,” “happiness,” and “convenience”
- Best practices for attorneys and fiduciaries to ensure beneficiary empowerment and quality of life
