Setting up a trust requires legal knowledge and attention to every detail. Alleging a breach by a trustee or improper management of a trust demands a lawyer who will pursue legal action. At Steele Urquhart, we have extensive litigation experience representing trustees and beneficiaries in matters when money, property and family relationships are at stake. Our focus is on the unique needs of our clients. Our strength is our experience and knowledge. Our advocacy spans all levels of courts and other areas.
A trustee is legally required to administer the trust within the law. The terms of the trust are spelled out, and the job of the trustee is to properly adhere to the terms of the trust.

Disputes arise when beneficiaries want money sooner, trying to vary the terms of the trust, or, more commonly, when trustee mismanagement is suspected. Legal steps may, in some cases, be taken to remove and replace the trustee.
Personal and financial issues often intersect. At Steele Urquhart, we represent family members making accusations of wrongdoing, as well as trustees who have been accused of acting improperly.
