Trust & Estate Litigation

Overview

We protect your wealth when you face disputes over personal, charitable, and commercial assets. The best way to do this is to prevent litigation, so we make every effort to limit your liability and engage in estate planning to minimize claims being made against your assets. When litigation is necessary, we combine zealous advocacy with sensitivity to the complex emotional and personal implications. Our experienced litigators represent individuals, families, businesses, and nonprofit organizations in resolving conflicts involving trusts, wills, and estates. This includes representing trustees and beneficiaries in claims for breach of a trustee’s fiduciary duties, trust administration disputes, challenges to will validity involving mental incapacity or undue influence, and guardianship disputes.
