Litigation Regarding Trust Disputes

Moran & Associates advocate on behalf of clients’ desires to ensure property and wealth are handled in accordance with the desires and intentions of the Grantor of the Trust. Trusts are created by a grantor in order to provide for the benefit of beneficiaries.  Beneficiaries are entitled to Notice of a Trust, a Copy of the Trust, and an accounting, as well as distributions according to the terms of the Trust.  There are several issues that may arise in Trust litigation, including but not limited to:

  1. Undue influence
  2. Fraud
  3. Incapacity
  4. Ambiguity

 

Trust mismanagement, Breach of Fiduciary Duty, and Breach of Duty of Loyalty are unfortunately very common.  Whether you are a beneficiary of a trust who is dealing with these unlawful behaviors of a trustee or if you are a fiduciary or trustee who is wrongly being accused of mismanagement for:

  1. Breach of Fiduciary Duty
  2. Surcharge
  3. Mismanagement of the Estate
  4. Breach of Duty of Loyalty
