During Liberace's trial in the late fifties, Lee, as he was familiarly called, was critically reviewed by Cassandra (a former Colonel in the British Army) in his daily column in London's Daily Mirror. Cassandra wrote, ""He is the summit of sex--the pinnacle of masculine, feminine and neuter. Everything that he, she, and it can ever want.

His attorney, Joel Strote, managed to stuff the estate for his own, and that forced a very ugly trial both between the Liberace family both in Los Angeles and Las Vegas where Liberace made his home for tax benefits. The outcome of trial(s) were in Strote's favor; though his niece, Ida Mae Liberace, claimed that there were hundreds of millions of dollars in the estate that was secreted in an account in Switzerland. His burial was in Forest Lawn overlooking Warner Brothers Studio and where Liberace filmed his disastrous film during the 1950s entitled Sincerely Yours.
