Estate Litigation
Our lawyers are experienced in complex dispute resolution with respect to the administration of estates and trusts. We act for executors, administrators, trustees, heirs, beneficiaries, and persons who believe they have been wrongfully excluded from an estate. By their nature, estate-related disputes are often fraught with family and inter-personal conflict. Our approach is to provide straight-forward advice to our clients with sensitivity, and to achieve an efficient and cost-effective solution, whether through negotiation, arbitration, mediation or litigation.
Our estate litigation services include:
- acting on will and estate challenges and trust disputes
- all aspects of contentious and non-contentious court proceedings from appointment of trustees to the passing of accounts and closure of the estate
- dependant support applications
- representing clients seeking court direction on the interpretation of wills and trusts
