Breach of Fiduciary Duty Attorney in Tennessee

Breach of fiduciary duty attorney in Tennessee for LLC managers, corporate directors and officers, partners, and trustees facing or asserting claims for self-dealing, breach of loyalty, breach of care, and other fiduciary failures.

This page covers a focused service. For the broader editorial practice area, see Owner Disputes in Tennessee.

What this covers

Fiduciary duty cases live or die on the specific facts of the relationship and the conduct at issue. The work covers plaintiff-side and defense-side representation in claims for breach of loyalty, breach of care, usurpation of corporate or LLC opportunities, and self-dealing transactions that bypassed required disclosure or approval.

Common case patterns include managers who used company resources for personal projects, controlling members who diverted opportunities, officers who concealed material information from the board, and trustees who self-dealt in trust assets.

When to call

When self-dealing is suspected and discovery has not yet started, when a demand letter or complaint has been received, or when the fiduciary is being asked to disclose conduct that may turn into a claim. Early review protects the analysis and the privilege.

Tennessee specifics

Tennessee recognizes fiduciary duties of loyalty and care across LLC managers, corporate officers and directors, general partners, and trustees, with specific standards drawn from the operating documents and applicable statutes. The Tennessee Revised LLC Act and Business Corporation Act both shape the analysis.
