Fiduciary duty is a legal obligation to act in the best interests of the beneficiary. This applies to corporate directors, officers, trustees, and other trusted advisors. A breach occurs when that duty is violated or exploited for personal gain.
In California, the time to file a fiduciary-duty claim depends on the type of claim and contract; some claims fall under general contract or tort statutes with a two- or four-year limit. Factors like discovery rules and governing agreements can affect deadlines, so prompt review helps avoid forfeiture.
Remedies include damages to compensate losses, disgorgement of profits gained from the breach, and injunctions to stop ongoing misconduct. In some cases, specific performance or governance reform may be available.
