Trust and Estate Litigation

Trusts and Estate Litigation

Family is everything. But sometimes, when it comes to inheritance, emotions can run high, leading to disputes that threaten the legacy you intended. At Ridgway Law Group, our dedicated team understands the complexities of contested wills and trusts.

Here's how we can help:

• Protecting Your Wishes: We advocate fiercely for the validity of your trust or will, ensuring your final wishes are upheld.
• Navigating Complexities: We possess deep knowledge of state inheritance laws and have a proven track record of resolving disputes efficiently.
• Mediation & Negotiation: Whenever possible, we strive for solutions that minimize family conflict and reach a fair outcome for all parties involved.
• Litigation Expertise: When necessary, we are prepared to take your case to court to protect your interests.

Common Issues in Trusts & Estate Litigation:

• Challenging the Validity of a Will or Trust: Was the document properly signed and witnessed? Did undue influence play a role? We can investigate and address these concerns.
• Breach of Fiduciary Duty: Did the trustee or executor mismanage assets? We can hold them accountable and seek recovery of any losses.
• Beneficiary Disputes: Are there disagreements about the interpretation of the will or trust? We can help clarify the testator's (the person who created the will or trust) intent and reach a fair resolution.

At Ridgway Law Group, we are committed to providing compassionate and effective legal representation throughout the entire litigation process. Our team will work tirelessly to achieve a successful outcome while keeping you informed every step of the way.
