Attorney General Corbett Files Second Suit Alleging "Living Trust" Sales Scheme

Attorney General Tom Corbett today announced that a second civil lawsuit has been filed against the operators of a living trust sales scheme, who are accused of deceiving elderly consumers into purchasing Revocable Living Trusts and other estate planning products that pay the sellers high commissions, but may not be in the consumers' best interest.  

The Attorney General's Charitable Trusts and Organizations Section simultaneously filed a motion for special injunction and for preliminary injunction that asks the court to immediately require that the defendants cease all illegal operations until the lawsuits are decided.  A Commonwealth Court hearing on the motion is set for 10 a.m. Wed. May 3.

The suit identifies 11 defendants, including Montgomery County lawyer Brett B. Weinstein, who was named in the Attorney General's original October 2004 complaint. Corbett said this latest legal action follows an investigation into additional complaints from elderly consumers, who claimed that they were defrauded by the defendants.
