Fiduciary violations and elderly issues
Spinella & Associates practice in cases where persons involved in the probate system have been treated unfairly. Citizens involved in the probate process frequently need a strong legal advocate to see to it that their rights are not abused by the process itself; that those having a fiduciary duty to them uphold such fiduciary duty; that investment of any money done on their behalf be done prudently; that wills have been executed and are administered properly; that the rights of the elderly, disabled, and infirm be upheld in all instances.
A prime example of the commitment of Spinella & Associates to this area is the representation of the heir who was unjustly conserved, against his wishes (see Firm Cases). For several years, Spinella & Associates have fought a powerful bank and a large law firm to protect his rights to have control over his own family monies.
