Fiduciary Duty Litigation

McKool Smith attorneys have tried cases and litigated appeals establishing some of the basic principles of modern fiduciary-duty law. We represent plaintiffs and defendants, including trustees, corporations, individual executors, guardians, beneficiaries, and others in a broad spectrum of fiduciary-related disputes involving legal, financial, and tax matters. From our experience, we understand that fiduciary duty arises from a number of factors, including one party granting another control of certain financial affairs, the sharing of business secrets or technology, or an agreement to jointly pursue a business opportunity.
