Probate and Trust Litigation

The CMH attorneys have detailed knowledge of litigation matters resulting from the administration and disposition of wills, trusts, and estates. Our firm represents parties that include banks, trust companies, individual beneficiaries, charities, trustees, and personal representatives. When disputes arise, we work on behalf of our clients to achieve a settlement that maximizes their interest, or when necessary, limits their liability. If litigation is necessary, we are tenacious in prosecuting or defending those same interests in court. Our attorneys provide thoughtful representation that addresses not only the issue at hand but broader long-term ramifications of decisions involving fiduciary powers.

• Litigation regarding breach of fiduciary duty claims or fiduciary accounting
• Surcharge and removal of a personal representative or trustee
• Will and trust contests
• Trust modification, reformation, and termination
• Litigation regarding the discharge of trustees and personal representatives
