Matter of PW

Our client was the primary beneficiary of an estate that had been open for a long time without distribution. We investigated estate activity and learned the Personal Representative had been receiving funds from the estate without authority. We successfully petitioned for that person to be removed as Personal Representative, for our client to be appointed as successor Personal Representative, and for treble damages for the funds the initial Personal Representative improperly received from the estate. Each case is unique. Past outcomes do not guarantee future results.
