The lawyers in our Estate Litigation area specialize in navigating disputes among heirs and beneficiaries. If you suspect that a will or its execution does not reflect the wishes of the deceased, you have a right to challenge the proceedings in probate court. We represent aggrieved parties in probate cases relating to lack of capacity, undue influence and breach of fiduciary duty. The individual chosen to be the personal representative for an estate or to hold power of attorney has a fiduciary duty to dispatch his/her obligations professionally and in accordance with the wishes of the testator. Any deliberate fraud or negligence in accounting for assets can and should be challenged in probate.
