<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Happy Friday, everyone. Client is a Canadian citizen and U.S. permanent resident, with property in Washington. She wants to create a testamentary trust to hold Washington property with a U.S. trustee and Canadian beneficiaries
(her minor nieces). Does this set-up raise any red flags? </p>
