What Is Trust and Estate Litigation?
Trust and estate litigation involves lawsuits and court trials used to resolve disputes surrounding the administration of an individual’s estate, trust, or will. Legal disputes can arise from a variety of issues, including someone challenging the validity of a will, the management of a trust by a trustee, or the mental capacity of the grantor.
Trust litigation specifically focuses on the legal process of creating, managing, interpreting, and administering trusts. If there are disagreements or disputes regarding how the assets within a trust should be managed or distributed after the grantor’s death or incapacitation, for example, this could lead to trust litigation in Solana Beach.
Estate litigation refers to disputes arising from how an individual’s estate is administered after his or her death. These cases often involve wills and trusts as part of the deceased individual’s estate plan. Estate litigation may involve probate court, or a process where the courts name beneficiaries and determine how an estate will be administered based on state law.
