Trustee Services

The Attorneys at Eastham Law Offices serve as Trustees of Revocable and Irrevocable Trusts.

All Trusts name Trustees who are simply managers of the Trust assets with a fiduciary duty to the named beneficiaries in a manner dictated by the creator of the Trust who is called the Trustor, Grantor, Settlor or Creator, which all have the same meaning.

Generally the Trustor has named himself or herself to be the Trustee (manager) of the Trust during his/her life and names, in the Trust, a Successor Trustee or Trustees to administer the Trust upon the Trustor’s death.

Even though the Trust is administered without court supervision, the Successor Trustee(s) has a very big responsibility to strictly act in the highest good faith in performing her or her duties. Florida Statutes provide requirements that the Successor Trustee do in order to prevent being attacked or sued by any or all of the beneficiaries. The Successor Trustee owes a fiduciary duty to all the beneficiaries and to the deceased also.

"Thorough and Competent "

We can breathe a breath of relieft thanks to Erik Eastham and his team, knowing that our Estate is in order. Mr. Eastham simplified the process by educating us along the way in a professional and thorough way. During our meetings, he was attention to our needs and his staff followed up with attention to detail. Generous, thorough and competent are the words I would use to describe the Eastham firm.

"Excellent Attorney "

Attorney Erik Eastham and all the personnel were very courteous and professional in handling my affairs after my husband passed. Attorney Eastham took his time to explain everything in detail regarding what my options were. When I decided on a Revocable Living Trust, he went back over everything to make sure I understood the many angles of the Trust. I will recommend this law firm to others in his regard.

"Thank You to Eastham Law Offices "

I want to thank everyone at The Eastham Law Offices for their assistance in preparing a trust for my mother's estate. Throughout the process, they were helpful, informative, and incredibly patient. They met with my mother and were able to answer her questions and reassure her concerns throughout the process. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for estate planning services.

"Excellent Service "

I contacted Mr. Eastham because he was highly recommended to me, also I'm new to the area. After explaining my situation and my concerns, he gave me an honest and straight forward answer. It wasn't what I wanted to hear, but it was honest and straight forward. He explained everything in the easiest way so that I could clearly understand and could then decide on my course of action. Another thing I liked about him is that he return your phone calls. I had to make several calls to him over a period of time, sometimes I had to leave a message but he found the time to call back in a timely manner. My situation also required another attorney who specialized in a different area of the law, he did all the consultation, and phone calls to accommodate my needs and I'm also working with her now. Working with Mr. Eastham was a pleasure, he welcomed me with a warm sunny smile and hand shake that made me feel welcome. I almost forget my concerns for a minute. He's an excellent lawyer, and I highly recommend him.

"Very Nice Family "

My best friend from college and I wanted to start a business and didn't know what needed to be done. We contacted Eastham Law Offices and they created our corporation for us within a short period of time. They were very knowledgeable on how our corporation should be set up and what needed to happen throughout the year. We were both so pleased with the work they had done for our company that we have both hired them to do our Last Will and Testament and Trust. Very nice family and extremely welcoming. :)
