Trust and probate administrations can be difficult to navigate regardless of whether you are a fiduciary, beneficiary, or an heir. This is especially true where there are challenges to estate documents, beneficiary designations, or choices made during the administration. Of course, interpersonal relationships and family dynamics can also add a layer of complexity to administering or understanding trust and probate matters, especially during the difficult time after a loved one’s death.
We represent fiduciaries, beneficiaries, heirs, and other interested parties in litigation related to trusts and estates, including such matters as will and trust contests, administration and accounting disputes, requests for information, property sales, creditor actions, financial elder abuse, and breach of fiduciary duty actions. We work not only to protect our clients’ best interests, but to advise them throughout the process and make sure they have the opportunity to be heard and to contribute to the litigation strategy.
We understand that the litigation process is rarely rewarding for those involved. We also know that resolving disputes is not simply about winning. We strive to minimize litigation impact to our clients by providing timely information and experience-driven advice. We provide thoughtful solutions and focus on the practical application of the outcome we are looking to achieve.
