What is the role of a trustee?
In the case of a Testamentary Trust for Minor Children, the trustee is an individual that you have named in the Will to administer this trust. The trustee has legal title to the property in the trust and manages it for the benefit of the minor children. For example, the trustee will be responsible for providing funds to the guardian for the care of the minor child. You may want to name the same individual as both the trustee and guardian. Some Testators choose to make an entity the trustee or to have co-trustees.
