Palm Beach Gardens Probate Litigation Attorney
Wills, trusts and other estate planning instruments are intended to clearly lay out the rights and responsibilities and rights of various family members. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. If these instruments are vague or incomplete, or if the deceased lacked intent or was unduly influenced by another, you may need to litigate in order to protect your rights. If you are a party to a will contest, trust litigation, or some other form of probate litigation, I can assist you in vindicating your interests.
I am Lee A. Rosenthal, Attorney and Counselor at Law. I am able to prosecute and defend probate litigation on behalf of trustees and beneficiaries across Florida. Contact my office to discuss your needs.
Palm Beach County Trust Litigation Lawyer
Litigation between trustees and the beneficiaries of a trust can happen under a number of different circumstances, including:
- Improperly managed assets
- Breach of fiduciary duties
- Suit seeking removal of the trustee
- Recovering property paid by the trust
Will contests typically involve one of the following scenarios:
- If the deceased was mentally capable to enter into the will
- Whether or not there were technical defects in the will
- Claims as to undue influence
Litigation over trusts and wills frequently involves siblings and other family members at odds with each other. These disputes can become contentious, and costly, very quickly. If you have become involved in probate litigation, you need a lawyer who can separate the emotional issues from the legal issues in order to seek a positive resolution.
