A fiduciary duty is a legal obligation to act in another party’s best interests. Breach occurs when loyalty or care is compromised. Remedies can include monetary damages, restitution of profits, and injunctions to prevent ongoing harm.
Remedies may include compensatory damages for losses, disgorgement of gains obtained through the breach, restitution, and, in some cases, injunctive relief to prevent further harm.
Fiduciary breach timelines vary by case complexity, court schedule, and remedy pursued. Many disputes resolve within months, while others extend to multiple litigation stages.
