Attorney Robert Kory was named as a trustee of Cohen’s estate by the musician himself. But, Cohen’s children claim, the singer “came to appreciate in his waning days that he had made a grave error by allowing Kory to insinuate himself into Leonard’s affairs.”“Leonard Cohen’s lawyers and manager forged his trust so they could fleece the estate of millions of dollars and steal the Hall of Famer’s legacy from his own children,” attorney Adam Streisand told The Post.
For his part, Kory, 72, has vehemently denied any wrongdoing in court papers, and has attributed any confusion in the documents to “a scrivener’s error.” He said that he has gone to great lengths to keep Lorca and Adam in the loop, providing monthly statements on the finances and work of the LCFT, according to court documents.
Cohen wanted the change to be kept secret, court papers say. “While Mr. Cohen didn’t wish for this change in succession of trusteeship to be revealed to his children, Mr. Kory insisted, and this was explained to Adam and Lorca at a meeting in September 2015,” Chudd continued in his letter.During his lifetime, Cohen, who was born in Montreal in 1934, was generous to his children, buying Adam a home and Lorca a Los Angeles store valued at more than $1 million, according to court papers.
