Testimonials

In my opinion and experience, many trustees are cold and indifferent. This is where Christi Fried stands above. She has made it her life mission, as a trustee and economist, to not only manage the funds and client’s assets and needs, but to be on the cutting edge of medical knowledge, studies, treatments and opportunities.

Robin Y.Licensed Insurance Professional

The selection of a professional trustee is the most important decision catastrophically injured families can make. True post settlement advocacy requires the highest level of professionalism, compassionate intervention, and experience problem-solving skills. Christi Fried and her team at Continental Trust Services understand these important guiding principles and work tirelessly on behalf of their injured clients. When it comes to post settlement advocacy, CTS is simply the right choice!
