California Court of Appeal

In a legal malpractice action against brought after a court determined in the plaintiff's marriage dissolution action that trust documents prepared by his attorneys failed to ensure that his mother's gift of real property would be characterized as his separate property, the trial court's grant of summary judgment to the defendants on statute of limitations grounds is reversed, where the plaintiff did not suffer actual injury, and thus his cause of action did not accrue, until the court in the dissolution proceeding determined that the trust did not terminate a transmutation agreement.
