Few trustees and executors have enough familiarity with probate law to successfully administer an estate. In addition to handling probate issues, we also represent trustees and executors as individuals separate from the estate. We help them file the proper paperwork and gather the necessary documents for a smooth distribution of assets.

We can also represent a trustee or executor in the event that another beneficiary claims they have failed to perform their necessary duties. Our litigation department is equipped and qualified to handle even the most complex claims.

We understand that probate litigation can involve long-held grudges, bitterness and hurt feelings. Our attorneys will work to provide you with the strongest possible representation.
