Focus Fiduciary exists to help individuals with a family trust that cannot be served well by an institutional trustee. The typical institution, which is often a bank or trust company, will bundle legal, accounting and investment services with their trust service for a fee that is only affordable to the largest of trusts or estates. As a private professional trustee, Focus Fiduciary can offer trustee-only services in a way that can preserve existing relationships with attorneys, accountants and other trusted family advisors, who may have unique and valuable knowledge of family dynamics. An additional advantage of this approach is that the independence and objectivity of the trustee is preserved, and significant conflicts of interest can be avoided or eliminated. The right individual professional trustee can also function with more empathy, flexibility and speed in making decisions for the family beneficiaries.
