Tenn. Court of Appeals Landmark Decision Against Law firm Estate Abuse

Most recently, an online Twitter account stated that finding Justice is a quest to ferret out an invisible door in a hidden hallway, on a blacked out island, on a invisible moon; which is not far from the reality many victims learn, suffering from manifest injustice.

But, every once in a while, courts do the right ruling.

A higher Tennessee court has sustained the fact that lawyers and associated trustees breached their fiduciary duty in the handling of the estate of Woody Darken.

The landmark of this particular case is that Woody passed away naming his 2 sons as Trustees; and the Darken boys requested the bookkeeping of their fathers assets from their Law firm thar also represented their father.

Even after the court ordered production of the accounting and that the law firm submit to binding mitigation, the law firm.staunchly refused to comply.
