Estates Litigation

Disputes over the validity of a will are one of the most common forms of estate litigation. We assist clients in challenging or defending wills that may have been made under duress, undue influence, or when the deceased person lacked mental capacity.

Executors and administrators have a fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of the estate and its beneficiaries. If an executor fails in their duties—whether through mismanagement of assets, dishonesty, or conflicts of interest—our team can help you address these issues and seek appropriate remedies. 

Disagreements may arise about how the assets of an estate are to be distributed. We help beneficiaries and heirs understand their rights and seek fair distribution, whether it involves a specific bequest or the division of assets according to the terms of a will or the laws of intestacy.

Trusts can often be a source of conflict among family members. If you are facing issues with the administration of a trust or believe a trustee is not fulfilling their duties properly, we can provide guidance and represent you in trust disputes. 

Inheritance disputes often arise when individuals believe they have been unfairly excluded from a will or when family members disagree about the deceased’s intentions. We can help resolve these disputes, whether through negotiation or litigation.

Disputes can also arise regarding the use of powers of attorney, especially when someone feels that the appointed individual has abused their authority. We provide legal representation to protect your interests in such cases.
