Will & Trust Litigation

While creating a will or trust is intended to ensure that your wishes are carried out smoothly, disputes can sometimes arise that require legal intervention. Will and trust litigation involves resolving disputes related to the administration or distribution of a deceased person’s estate. At the Law Office of Daniel Potucek, we understand that these disputes can be emotionally charged and complex, and we are here to help protect your interests and achieve a favorable resolution.

Will and trust litigation can involve a wide range of issues, including:

• Will Contests: Challenges to the validity of a will, such as claims of undue influence, lack of capacity, or fraud.
• Trust Disputes: Disputes over the interpretation or administration of a trust, including allegations of breach of fiduciary duty, mismanagement of assets, or improper distribution of trust assets.
• Beneficiary Disputes: Disputes between beneficiaries or between beneficiaries and the executor or trustee.
• Creditor Claims: Claims by creditors seeking payment from the deceased person’s estate.
