Trust in Our Coordinated Efforts
Recently, our Business Litigation Practice Group asked for our Appellate Team’s assistance on a complicated appeal after our client won a summary judgment. The issues included a question of first impression regarding the interpretation of Missouri’s unitrust statute in connection with a trust that predated the statute’s existence. The case also involved issues regarding the admissibility of an affidavit, supporting exhibits, and an award of attorneys’ fees.
