Probate Litigation

We are familiar with and knowledgable about all issues which may result in disputes in probate and trust administration, such as:

  • Undue influence - convincing a dying person to exclude other legal heirs from the will or reduce their shares
  • Lack of testamentary capacity - arguing that Alzheimer's, dementia or another condition prevented the person from signing a valid will and/or trust
  • Lost property - recovering property taken from the estate by caregivers, children or the personal representative
  • Intestate litigation - disputes over the wishes of family member who died without a will
  • Breach of fiduciary duty - fraud, negligence or incompetence of the person appointed to settle the estate
