Probate Litigation

Probate Litigation

When there are disputes that arise during the probate process, it can be difficult to arrive at a resolution about the terms of a will or trust. In some cases, legitimate questions are raised concerning the mental capacity of the testator, undue influence on the testator, or exploitation of a vulnerable adult. In others, heirs — such as children from a previous marriage — who are left out of a will or trust may feel that they are entitled to inheritance.


In any dispute over probate or the administration of a trust, it is important to be represented by an experienced probate litigation attorney.

What is Probate Litigation?

Probate litigation is a lawsuit or petition filed with the court by a fiduciary, beneficiary, heir, or other interested party concerning the administration of a will or trust in the probate court. While probate litigation is similar to civil litigation, there are distinct differences that must be understood to avoid costly mistakes.
