Estate & Probate Litigation

Atlanta Estate Litigation Attorneys Representing Clients in Will and Probate Matters

We represent beneficiaries, heirs, executors and executrixes, administrators and administratrixes, personal representatives, estates, trustees, and others in caveats, challenges to the validity of wills and codicils, breach of fiduciary duty claims, disputes regarding the construction of wills, codicils, and trusts, and other estate disputes.

Our experience regarding caveats and challenges to the validity of wills and codicils includes allegations that the testator lacked testamentary capacity, allegations that the testator’s execution of the will or codicil was obtained by undue influence, duress, fraud in the inducement, or fraud in the execution, and allegations that the will or codicil was not executed in compliance with legal formalities.

We help our clients resolve disputes regarding the construction of wills, codicils, and trusts, which may arise when provisions in such documents are vague, ambiguous, or contradictory. When such disputes arise, our clients oftentimes benefit from our advice regarding potential legal malpractice claims against the attorney who drafted the will or codicil.

Our experience also includes claims against fiduciaries regarding the management of estates and trusts, such as claims of breach of fiduciary duty, conflict of interest, self-dealing, breach of the duty of care, and failure to properly protect, invest, or distribute property held by the estate or trust.
