Overview
Our Trusts, Estates and Fiduciary Litigation team represents corporate, institutional and individual clients in negotiations, settlements and trials on all matters pertaining to the proper administration of estates, trusts, powers of attorneys, guardianships, health care decisions and assets.
We handle cases involving claims of breach of fiduciary duty, fiduciary misconduct and fraud, misfeasance and malfeasance in estate administration, investment mismanagement, financial elder abuse, and will and trust contests.
We work closely with our clients, demystifying each step of the negotiation process to inform and counsel them with creative strategies to avoid litigation and through the litigation process if necessary.
We counsel clients in strategies to avoid disputes both during the estate planning process and in the process of administering estates. We ably steer clients through proceedings, sensitive negotiations, trials and mediations of will contests, complaints involving trusts and deeds, and similar matters involving allegations of interference with inheritances and contested accounts.
