Keystone Law Group Partner Jim Bush presented in a Continuing Education of the Bar (CEB) webinar titled “Power Under Pressure: Defending Agents Accused of Misconduct Under Powers of Attorney.” The program, part of CEB’s ongoing professional education series, explored strategies for protecting agents facing allegations of abuse or mismanagement while serving under a power of attorney.
Drawing on his extensive experience in probate litigation, Bush provided practical guidance on attorney-in-fact duties, third-party rights, and liability risks. His presentation emphasized the complexities of fiduciary duties, evidentiary challenges, and the broader implications for families and estates.
“Representing agents under powers of attorney requires both technical skill and sensitivity to family dynamics,” said Jim Bush. “These matters often involve heightened emotions, and my goal in this webinar was to provide attorneys with tools to approach them thoughtfully and effectively. I’m honored to contribute to CEB’s mission of advancing legal education in California.”
Keystone celebrates Bush’s contribution as part of the firm’s ongoing commitment to thought leadership in probate and estate law. His participation in CEB’s webinar underscores Keystone’s dedication to equipping practitioners with the knowledge and resources needed to navigate complex fiduciary disputes and protect clients’ interests.
