Breach Of Trustee And Executor Duty For Complex Estates

If you are experiencing or suspect a breach of fiduciary duty by the executor or trustee of a sophisticated estate in Toronto or elsewhere in Ontario, Papazian | Heisey | Myers can help.

REMEDYING PROBLEMS WITH EXECUTORS OR TRUSTEES

Although a testator named an individual to carry out his or her last wishes, the appointed executor or trustee may not always fulfill those responsibilities in a reliable, competent or completely honest manner. As legal advisors and experienced litigators, the lawyers at PHM can represent your interests in such disputes.

Our lawyers can investigate and resolve such executor- and trustee-related problems as:

  • failure to communicate or render estate accounts
  • disputes over remuneration
  • disagreements between co-executors or co-trustees
  • fraudulent conveyances
  • undue delay in handling the estate
  • negligence resulting in the diminished value of estate assets
  • failure to file and pay estate taxes and debts
  • mishandling of estate assets and funds
  • disregard for the provisions of a will
  • preferential or prejudicial treatment of heirs
