Being a fiduciary requires being bound both legally and ethically to act in another's best interests with a duty to preserve good faith and trust. It is considered to be the standard of the highest care.

"We are dedicated to helping the elderly and vulnerable people of our community manage their lives with independence and dignity."

There are many reasons for a family to choose a professional agent after the death of a loved one to settle the deceased’s final affairs:

• Family members live out of the area and do not have the time to probate the estate
• There is disagreement among the heirs as to how the estate is to be distributed
• There is no Last Will and Testament to appoint an administrator or direct distribution of assets
