At Fried Law Group, a significant aspect of attorney Fried’s practice involves advocating and protecting vulnerable clients, particularly the elderly or those unable to defend themselves, from financial exploitation. He handles cases of undue influence where individuals may have been taken advantage of in the process of estate planning, the creation of beneficiary designation, and challenging trusts and beneficiary designations to protect his clients. He also tackles breach of trust issues such as trustees mismanaging funds or failing to maintain necessary communications, often referred to as “breach of trust.” Not all claims are well founded, and therefore, Mr. Fried also spends a significant portion of his practice defending fiduciaries and unfounded claims of undue influence and lack of capacity.
When dealing with estate litigation, attorney Fried handles complex cases involving high-net-worth families, individuals, and closely help companies. Given the complexity and emotional charge often involved in family inheritance claims, attorney Fried diligently works to create strong, coherent stories or arguments. His goal in doing this is to ensure the case is understandable and persuasive to others, such as judges or juries, especially when there are conflicting versions of events presented by the other side in the dispute.
