The unique relationships of the individuals involved in estate and trust litigation make it an area ripe for resolution through mediation. However, this is not always an option, and we understand the sometimes unfortunate necessity of estate litigation. Whichever option fits your situation, our years of experience in this niche area of litigation—representing both plaintiffs and defendants—have provided us with a reputation for aggressive, but professional representation, ensuring that all matters are handled in effective and efficient manner.

We have significant experience representing professional fiduciaries in trust administration and trust litigation. We have served in the capacity as an expert witness for corporate fiduciaries in trust litigation, and several of our lawyers regularly lecture on the subject of trusts and the fiduciary duties owed by corporate trustees.
