In a significant ruling, an Indiana appeals court has dismissed a malpractice claim filed by two siblings against their father’s estate planning lawyer. The claim revolved around a trust established in 2018, but the court determined it was too late to bring the lawsuit, as it exceeded the two-year filing period. Consequently, the earlier ruling vindicating the attorney remains in effect.
