Addressing Breach Of Fiduciary Duty

A fiduciary is someone who acts on behalf of another person. When it comes to estate and trust administration, it is the responsibility of a fiduciary to administer the estate or trust in accordance with the rules specified by the person they are representing. Failing to comply with these rules can result in major legal and emotional challenges for beneficiaries and heirs. Whether you are accused of breaching fiduciary duty or suspect someone has breached their duty, defend your needs with swift legal guidance.
