Trust & Estate Litigation

Disputes sometimes arise during probate or the administration of a trust. Fiduciaries, acting as trustees, personal representatives or executors, as well as beneficiaries may need to defend or prosecute court proceedings. Controversies may involve will contests, disputes over distribution of trust assets, claims against a fiduciary, interpretation of estate documents, accountings, tax appeals and creditor claims. Our trust and estate attorneys collaborate with the firm’s experienced litigation attorneys to prosecute, defend and resolve these claims, whether through mediation or trial.
