Sacks, Glazier, Franklin & Lodise LLP
With over three decades of experience handling some of the most significant and complex trusts and estates disputes, Terrence Franklin is regarded as one of the top litigators in the U.S. by clients and colleagues. He is responsible for several published appeals and the landmark Moeller v. Superior Court case, which was brought before the California Supreme Court and established a fiduciary exception to the attorney-client privilege for successor trustees.
While Franklin is well-known in the legal community for his trusts and estates expertise, he is equally renowned for his commitment to furthering the advancement of minority lawyers. As a gay, African American lawyer, Franklin works tirelessly to bring awareness and educate others about the importance of diversity and inclusion. He holds countless leadership positions in organizations which impact the law and support his mission to “help bend the arc of history towards justice.”
