PROBATE AND TRUST
LITIGATION
Probate and trust litigation has lasting
consequences for participants that go well beyond the assets at stake.
The emotional component underlying such litigation can lead to
devastation of the surviving family members. In this context, the loss
of trust often can only be restored, if at all, by the appropriate
application of the laws that are peculiar to the administration and
division of estates by concerned and competent litigation attorneys.
The popularity of various forms of
trusts as methods of estate planning has contributed to the increase
in the number of cases reaching the courts today. The Litigation Law Group,
