I think that any bank or large attorney firms will be happy to serve as a trustee, but I wouldn't recommend hiring any trustee who you don't personally know and trust. Their fees will be extremely high. A close friend or relative would be much better to serve as a trustee. When I had my will prepared, my estate attorney told me that most professional trustees will not agree to make decisions for someone who is mentally incapacitated because of the liability.
