Our firm provides legal advice and representation to clients throughout New York in a wide variety of estate litigation matters, including:
- Wills or trusts contests
- Spousal right of election
- Fraudulent conveyances
- Defending an estate against creditor claims
- Removing a named fiduciary
Each type of case carries its own unique challenges and opportunities. Of course, there are separate challenges depending on whether our firm is called upon to challenge estate planning documents or defend them. In defending the documents, there are fairly broad powers provided through the law. Additionally, the litigation could prove financially damaging if you lose your fiduciary powers. In challenging estate planning documents, the most common difficulty is proving that our clients have standing to make challenges and showing that they have a stake in the outcome. We are experienced arguing on both sides of the dispute. Don't hesitate to schedule a consultation with our office to discuss your specific situation.
