Maine Attorney General Aaron Frey has settled claims against the estate of the late artist Robert Indiana and several law firms over excessive legal fees
PORTLAND, Maine -- Maine Attorney General Aaron Frey has resolved claims against the estate of the late artist Robert Indiana and several law firms accused of excessive legal fees, officials said Monday.
The settlement totals more than $2 million, most of which was paid by the firms through refunds or credits, the attorney general said.
Indiana, creator of the famous “LOVE” series, spent the last decades of his life on Vinalhaven Island, 15 miles (25 kilometers) off Rockland, Maine.
After his death on May 19, 2018, at 89, his will called for tapping his estate valued at $90 million at the time of his death to transform his island home into a museum to celebrate his work.
