Where Trust Meets Experience

At Foundation Fiduciary, we understand that families, courts, and legal professionals need more than just a name on paper—they need a steady hand. Founded by Ron Stoffers, a California Licensed Professional Fiduciary and National Certified Guardian, Foundation Fiduciary exists to provide clarity and confidence in life’s most complex transitions.

Foundation Fiduciary is trusted by courts and attorneys in California, across the US and around the world to act with neutrality, discretion, and diligence in matters of trust administration, probate, conservatorship, and receiverships. But behind every title and task, we remain focused on one thing: people. Our goal is to help families and professionals navigate emotionally charged, high-stakes situations with confidence and calm.
