Experienced Litigators Resolving Stressful Disputes
With extensive experience in probate and estate planning, our lawyers have the skills to help you resolve these disputes. Some common allegations that may lead to breach of fiduciary duty litigation include:
- Failing to pay creditors on time
- Not distributing assets according to the terms of the will or trust
- Making financial decisions not in the best interest of the estate and beneficiaries
- Taking money out of the estate for yourself
Administering a loved one’s estate is a sensitive process. Beneficiaries want to ensure their loved one’s wishes are honored, but they also want to receive the assets they were promised. We can thoroughly review financial statements and the estate plan to determine if errors were made and how you can either defend yourself or seek to remove an administrator from the estate.
