What is Probate Litigation?

Probate litigation is the legal process of resolving disputes that arise during the administration of a deceased person's estate. While a well-prepared estate plan can help, conflicts can still arise, especially when a will or trust is contested. Because these cases often involve family members, they are intensely personal and require a legal strategy that is both aggressive and handled with the utmost discretion.

Types of Probate Disputes We Handle

Our firm represents clients in a wide range of probate disputes, providing a strong voice for your legal rights. We handle matters including:

Contested Wills: Challenging the validity of a last will and testament based on various legal grounds.
Undue Influence: Allegations that a will or trust was created or amended under pressure from another person.
Lack of Mental Capacity: Disputes over whether the deceased person had the mental capacity to create or amend their will.
Breach of Fiduciary Duty: Legal action against an executor, trustee, or personal representative for mismanaging the estate.
Elective Share Contests: Representing a surviving spouse seeking their legal share of the estate.
