Estates, Wills & Trusts Litigation

Houston Estates, Wills, and Trusts Litigation Lawyers

Contesting a will or trust in the estate of a loved one is not an ideal situation. It is, however, often necessary. Many situations arise causing family and beneficiaries to question estate distribution or estate administration. In some instances, one child may be completely ignored in a will, with no reason given. In others, disputes may arise after a will goes into probate, including disputed questions of asset distribution. For example, one common complication occurs when a parent needs assistance running errands and paying bills and decides to add a child’s name to their bank account. The intention is generally for assistance only during his/her lifetime, not to leave the account to only one child.

Litigation may also arise with regard to fiduciary duties of executors, administrators, and trustees. A fiduciary may misappropriate trust funds, an administrator may “misplace” estate property or funds, or conceal or mislead beneficiaries regarding the amount and condition of the trust or estate.
