Family Disputes:
Boothbay, Maine
As our population ages and the intergenerational transfer of wealth accelerate, we have been working on more inter-family disputes regarding wills, trusts and shared assets. Most recently, we are representing family members regarding ocean front property that was put into a trust with one family member as trustee. That trustee took actions to benefit the trustee over the other family members, so we have brought a lawsuit for the beneficiaries of a trust against an overreaching trustee acting in violation of the intent of the grantor and the terms of the trust by, among other things, issuing beneficial shares to his own children without receiving any consideration.
