Description

A legal fight is brewing over the $275 million estate of music legend Jimmy Buffett. His widow is suing to remove the co-trustee—an accountant—raising questions about trust administration, fiduciary duty, and what happens when massive estates are in dispute.


As trust and estate litigators, this is right in our wheelhouse. We’ll break down:


- Why a widow might sue a co-trustee

- What it means when an estate is worth hundreds of millions

- The legal standards for removing a trustee

- And what this might signal about future litigation in celebrity estates
