In addition, here is the language that Glen mentioned in his presentation about naming the client’s financial advisor as the advisor for the trust after the death of the Trustors. Please have the attorney review this suggested language to ensure it complies with state law. Please also keep in mind th at as the attorney, I do fully brief the client on the pros and cons of having the advisor appointed within the trust document and don’t just mention it as an afterthought. It actually SHOULD be easy for the Trustee to fire an advisor if things are not working out, but with this language it is clear that the Trustors intend for the financial advisor to continue working with the trust after death. When first discussing this language with Glen, we basically agreed that if the Successor Trustee were to move the business that it would simply not be worth fighting it, financially or ethically.
