Practice · Estate Litigation

When family disputes reach the courthouse.

Free initial consultation — no cost, no obligation.

Litigation is never a first choice, but sometimes it is the only way to protect a vulnerable person or a rightful inheritance. We prepare each case as if it will be tried.

Will & Trust Contests

Challenges to the validity of a will or trust, including questions of capacity, undue influence, and improper execution.

Fiduciary Disputes

Actions to remove trustees or executors, compel accountings, and recover mismanaged assets.

Undue Influence

Investigation and prosecution — or defense — of claims that a caregiver, family member, or advisor overbore the decedent's free will.

Guardianship & Conservatorship

Contested petitions involving vulnerable adults, including disputed capacity assessments.

Elder Financial Exploitation

Civil recovery for older adults victimized by scams, isolation, or financial abuse.

Beneficiary & Heir Disputes

Interpretation of ambiguous documents and resolution of distribution disagreements.

Our approach

We are candid about the cost and time of contested matters and honest about the odds. Most cases resolve — often through mediation — before trial, and our job is to put you in the strongest possible position for that resolution.

  • → Early case assessment with a written strategy and budget.
  • → Coordinated expert witnesses on capacity and medical issues.
  • → Discreet handling — family, reputation, and privacy come first.
