What are common issues that arise during trust distribution?

Many common issues arise during trust distribution in California. One common issue is when a trustee tries to change the terms of the trust without the beneficiaries’ consent. Another common issue is when a trustee fails to follow the terms of the trust or mismanages the trust assets. Trustees may also fail to communicate with the beneficiaries or keep them informed about the trust. Beneficiaries may also have disagreements about how the trust should be divided or how the assets should be managed.
