An affidavit of successor trustee is filed when a trustee is removed or has died and is being replaced with the successor trustee. This is common in trusts (or joint tenancy) when it's written that if anything should happen to the trustee, the successor trustee will take over ownership.
A Petition is filed under PC 17200 to appoint a successor trustee. All trustees and beneficiaries sign a consent. At least one beneficiary or trustee signs a nomination of a new trustee. Always look to the trust to see if a successor is named.
If a trustee is a professional, they generally can charge their standard hourly rates (which, in our experience, usually fall between $100 and $175 per hour). Alternatively, it is customary for some trustees to charge a fee equivalent to 1% to 1.5% of the value of the trust assets per year.
What is a Successor Trustee? To be named the successor trustee of a loved one's trust is an honorable title. In short, it entails that you are the third party the trustor has entrusted their property and assets to in the event they pass away or become incapacitated.
Successor Trustee is the person or institution who takes over the management of a living trust property when the original trustee has died or become incapacitated.
