In an earlier podcast, we discussed how talking with your clients about the issue of Successor Trusteeship for their family trust is a key to establishing long-term, profitable relationships.

Listen as Tax and Estate Attorney John Erik Fraker discusses the pros/cons of choosing a family member trustee vs. a professional.
