Litigation
Unfortunately, there are sometimes disagreements over the transfer of a decedent’s assets and the beneficiaries of those assets. When this occurs, it is important to consult with an attorney about your rights. We represent clients in Will or Trust contests based upon lack of capacity or undue influence of the decedent prior to death. We also represent clients who wish to challenge the conduct of a power of attorney, personal representative, or trustee that is not appropriately communicating with beneficiaries or are not fulfilling their fiduciary duties. Sometimes, a fiduciary needs representation when a contest is unjustified or can be explained. Sometimes a document, Will or Trust, is not clear in direction. In these instances, a Court can be called upon to interpret ambiguous documents. Our attorneys can help with litigation when heirs have questions or when the process is unclear.
