Estate and trust matters often involve individuals who can’t legally speak for themselves, such as minors or future descendants. Without proper representation, matters can be delayed and settlements can be challenged.
On April 25, OLSS attorney Philip Corbo presented at the ACTEC Mid-Atlantic Fellows Institute on virtual representation and designated representatives — doctrines that allow certain individuals to legally act on behalf of others, without requiring court-appointed guardians or judicial intervention.
Philip brings both technical insight and practical experience to the conversation. He has presented frequently on trust construction, fiduciary obligations, and representation frameworks at ACTEC and NJICLE. Philip focuses on anticipating friction points before they escalate, and he is a zealous advocate when they do.
At OLSS, we approach estate and trust matters with the same mindset: foresight, precision, and a commitment to helping clients navigate conflicts.
