San Antonio Estate Litigation Lawyer
Texas Will Contest Attorney
In theory, every will, trust or other estate planning instrument should clearly and accurately reflect the wishes of the deceased. In theory, trustees, executors or others tasked with administering an estate will perform their duties to the letter of the law.
In practice, this does not always happen.
If you are going to be a party in estate litigation, it is imperative to hire an attorney who can protect your rights and present your case in a persuasive fashion. Efron & Efron, Inc., has represented many clients in estate litigation such as will contests. These contests can involve a number of issues such as:
- Whether or not the will was valid
- If there is more than one will, which will is the correct will
- Whether or not one person had undue influence over the deceased
- Whether or not the deceased had proper capacity to complete a will
Litigation over trusts can involve disputes between the beneficiaries and the trustee. In many cases, trust contests may involve allegations of squandering assets or selling estate assets for less than the fair market value.
Estate litigation can cause longstanding disputes between family members to boil over. As a result, will contests, trust contests or other forms of estate litigation are often very heated. In many cases, litigation may be the only way to resolve a dispute. At Efron & Efron, Inc., we want to help you accomplish your goals in any kind of estate dispute. We also, however, want you to understand what we can and cannot accomplish under the law, based on the facts of your case. Our lawyers take great pride in helping set realistic expectations for our clients. We do not believe in surprises and will take care to inform you of all developments in your case.
