Fiduciary litigation is a significant and growing field of litigation that cuts across varying categories of litigated matters, including business disputes, estate and trust disputes, family law disputes, and disputes in numerous other substantive legal areas. Because fiduciary obligations arise in multiple ways, and because the existence of fiduciary duties can radically reshape the dynamics of litigation, fiduciary litigation has grown into its own specialization. The required courses for the Fiduciary Litigation Professional Track focus on the substantive areas of the law where fiduciary duties most commonly arise, in order to help students understand the origins and context of fiduciary obligations, as well as remedies for violations of fiduciary duties. The elective courses for the professional track are broader in nature, providing additional and somewhat more generalized litigation depth. This professional track qualifies as a foundation track for the Special Distinction in Litigation.
