Trust Litigation

When a trust becomes a dispute — a contest, a suspect amendment, a trustee who will not account — the questions get factual fast. We handle both sides of that fight.

Disputes we handle

Resolved efficiently where possible. Tried where necessary.

Most trust disputes settle once the facts are actually documented. The ones that do not need counsel who prepared them for court from the beginning.

01

Trust Contests

Undue influence, lack of capacity, fraud and improperly executed amendments.

02

Breach of Fiduciary Duty

Self-dealing, commingling, failure to account, and trustee removal.

03

Beneficiary Rights

Compelling accountings, information and distributions that are being withheld.

04

Trustee Defense

Representing trustees acting in good faith against opportunistic claims.

05

Property & Title Disputes

Competing claims to real property held in or transferred out of trust.

06

Elder Financial Abuse
