Ronald Barron and his partner, Andrew Mayoras achieved a critical victory in MichigBest Attorneys in Troy MIan Court of Appeal that will likely have long-standing implications in trust and probate law in the State of Michigan.

On January 29, 2015, the Michigan Court of Appeals released a published opinion that clarified several different aspects of Michigan’s comprehensive Trust Code, which is a relatively new law, passed in 2010. The opinion involved longstanding and very contentious probate court litigation, in which Ron Barron served as co-trustee of a substantial trust and who has been acting as counsel for decedent’s business for over thirty years, and Andy Mayoras served as the litigation and appellate counsel. The Case, In re Gerald L. Pollack Trust, involved a heated dispute starting in Oakland County Probate Court, brought by two sons of the decedent, successful business owner Gerald Pollack, who died in 2009. The final trust protected the wife’s interests throughout her life. The sons felt entitled to inherit control and ownership of the business immediately, not after the wife passed away. In bringing this heated probate court battle, numerous legal issues of first impression were raised, which have now been answered (in many cases for the first time in the State of Michigan) by this Court of Appeals opinion. The Michigan Trust Code has only been in effect for less than five years, these rulings will define and govern the applicability of these important provisions of the statutes for what is likely to be decades to come. Mr. Barron received his B.A. from Michigan State University and his J.D. from Wayne State University Law School.
