Abstract

The Author's chapter 22, Representing a Trustee, in UNDERSTANDING AND USING TRUSTS, covers the essential issues in Massachusetts trust law and practice. Two critical areas of trust-related law practice are explored in detail: lawyers acting as trustees and lawyers representing trustees. A number of difficult regulatory and ethical issues for these types of practice are raised and covered in depth.
