Understanding Fiduciary Duty
A fiduciary duty exists when one person is legally obligated to act entirely in the best interest of another. In the business world, this duty is typically owed by:
- Partners to their fellow partners
- Directors to the corporation and its shareholders
- Trustees to the beneficiaries of a trust
- Agents to their principals
This responsibility is broken down into three core pillars: loyalty, care and good faith. This means this duty demands that you act with diligence and maintain an honest, lawful intent in every decision you make for the company.
Examples Of A Breach Of Fiduciary Duty
Breaches of fiduciary duty are rarely accidental. They are actions that siphon value away from you or the company. Our trial team aggressively litigates scenarios involving:
- Self-dealing: Using your company to approve contracts or deals that secretly benefit the fiduciary’s personal business
- Misappropriation of assets: Taking a lucrative deal or a company asset that should have belonged to the business
- Mismanagement of funds: Handling company money with extreme recklessness
- Failure to disclose information: Keeping you in the dark about vital financial facts to manipulate your decisions
These actions represent a fundamental betrayal of trust. When a fiduciary chooses personal gain over their professional obligations, we use aggressive litigation to restore the integrity of your investment.
