A fiduciary duty is a legal requirement to act in another party’s best interests. If a breach occurs, you may be entitled to compensation and other remedies depending on the relationship and the harm caused. Remedies may include monetary damages, injunctions, and fees depending on the case and governing law.
Damages can cover direct losses, indirect losses, and, in some cases, consequential damages. You may also pursue equitable relief to prevent ongoing or future harm. An attorney can help quantify losses and determine which remedies apply.
