Ms. Min Chayet was also an associate focusing on trusts and estates at law firms Hawthorne, Ackerly & Dorrance, LLC; Wiggin and Dana LLP; and Whitman Breed Abbott & Morgan LLC. She has served on the board of directors of the New York City Estate Planning Council, acted as President of the Fordham Law School Connecticut Alumni Chapter, and in 2021, she was named one of the Outstanding Women in Law honorees by Hofstra University’s Maurice A. Deane School of Law. Ms. Min Chayet is an active member of the trusts and estates committees of the New York State Bar Association and National Asian Pacific American Bar Association, as well as its New York and Connecticut affiliates.

“Honoring clients by holding ourselves to a higher standard when managing their trusts and estates is ingrained in Fiduciary Trust International’s culture,” said Ms. Min Chayet. “The transparency and open communication at the heart of the firm’s trust and estate administration offering ensure we can deliver informed guidance and advice for growing and protecting assets which are in line with clients’ intentions.”

Ms. Min Chayet earned her juris doctor (JD) from Fordham University School of Law, and received her master of public policy administration (MPA) from Columbia University.
