August 2017

August 30, 2017 by admin

The Firm successfully opposed a motion to dismiss a petition seeking an accounting of a trust and ancillary injunctive relief.  The motion, brought by the trust’s Swiss trustee, sought dismissal on the grounds that the appropriate forum for disputes relating to the trust was the Caribbean island of Nevis.  We prevailing in arguing that the appropriate forum was Connecticut, where the trust’s property and beneficiaries are located.  Charlie Pieterse, Richard Lawler, and Wyatt Jansen handled the matter.


Charlie Pieterse was recognized in the 24th Edition of The Best Lawyers in America for the practice area of Litigation – Trust & Estates.  See selection methodology at https://www.bestlawyers.com/Methodology
