Treasure Valley Fiduciary Law Firm

Essentially, a fiduciary is someone who is obliged to protect the interests of another person or entity. Examples are a child’s legal guardian, a trustee of a testamentary trust, a conservator of the estate of a person deemed incompetent, the executor of a will, or an advisor charged with exercising control over a trust of some kind—to name a few. Fiduciaries may be required to hold funds and assets in a special fiduciary account and submit inventories to the court at predetermined intervals. A fiduciary has an obligation not to betray the trust invested in them at the expense of the person or entity that has placed their trust in their ability to discharge their duties in a responsible manner.

Trust such as this comes with a high level of accountability, and some individuals are unable or unwilling to honor that trust which occasionally leads to fiduciary litigation such as:

  • Personal and Employee Benefit Trusts
  • Shareholder Disputes
  • Corporate Fiduciary Duty Claims
  • ERISA-Based Claims
  • Tax Disputes at the State and Federal Level
  • Guardianship Litigation
  • Will Contests
  • Trust Disputes
  • Breach of Fiduciary Duty Claims
  • Probate Litigation
  • Estate Litigation
  • And many other applications of fiduciary law
