Resolving Estate and Trust Disputes with Strength and Skill
When a loved one passes away, disputes over their will, trust, or estate can create profound conflict within a family. These disagreements require not only a deep understanding of probate and trust law but also the skill of an experienced litigator. At Hildebrand Law Firm, our Milwaukee inheritance litigation attorneys represent beneficiaries, heirs, and fiduciaries in contested estate matters, fighting to protect their rights and honor the decedent's true intentions.
When Estate Administration Becomes a Legal Battle
Inheritance and probate litigation arise when there is a significant dispute over the validity or administration of an estate or trust. These are not simple administrative matters; they are complex lawsuits that take place in probate court. Our firm has the experience to handle a wide range of contested issues.
Our Inheritance and Probate Litigation Services
We provide tenacious and strategic representation in all forms of estate-related disputes, including:
- Will Contests: Challenging the validity of a will based on claims of undue influence (coercion of the testator), lack of testamentary capacity, fraud, or improper execution.
- Trust Litigation: Representing beneficiaries or trustees in disputes over the terms of a trust, the trustee's actions, or the validity of the trust itself.
- Breach of Fiduciary Duty: Filing claims against personal representatives (executors) or trustees who have mismanaged assets, engaged in self-dealing, or failed to act in the best interests of the beneficiaries.
- Heirship Disputes: Representing clients in legal actions to determine the rightful heirs of an estate when the decedent died without a will (intestate).
- Financial Exploitation Claims: Pursuing legal action to recover assets that were wrongfully taken from an elderly or vulnerable person prior to their death.
