Breach of Fiduciary Duty Attorney in Tennessee

Tennessee recognizes fiduciary duties of loyalty and care across LLC managers, corporate officers and directors, general partners, and trustees, with the specific standard drawn from the operating documents and the applicable statute — the Tennessee Revised LLC Act and the Business Corporation Act both shape it. The claims are breach of loyalty, breach of care, usurping a corporate or LLC opportunity, and self-dealing transactions that skipped the required disclosure or approval. The fact patterns are a manager using company resources on a side project, a controlling member steering an opportunity to himself, an officer hiding material information from the board, and a trustee dealing in trust assets for personal gain.

On the plaintiff side, the work is best started before discovery hardens positions; on the defense side, before a fiduciary is asked to disclose conduct that may become the claim. Either way, getting in early protects the analysis and the privilege. Because these cases live and die on facts and documents, the side that organizes the record first usually controls the narrative.
