Will & Trust Disputes
When a loved one dies, Searcy Denney attorneys can advise you of your rights under wills and trusts.
Legal disputes over wills or trusts can be even more devastating emotionally than financially to the parties involved. Whether you are the person disputing, or the person attempting to preserve the intent, emotions run high and are exacerbated by confusing probate laws.
Our attorneys at Searcy Denney Scarola Barnhart & Shipley have the experience to see through emotional logjams, to review relevant documents and laws, and to advise you of your legal rights . . . honestly, respectfully, and compassionately.
We know that just the prospect of our own or a loved one’s death prompts psychological turmoil, sometimes pitting generation against generation and tearing families apart. Wills and trusts may be disputed by individuals who feel unfairly excluded from financial benefit. Well-meaning people may make decisions about their estates in conditions of physical infirmity or emotional confusion, when they are not truly competent to decide such important matters. In the worst case scenario, unscrupulous or self-serving people may be pressuring an elderly person in failing health to make bequests that do not reflect his or her true desires.
Regardless of the situation, we at Searcy Denney Scarola Barnhart & Shipley know the pitfalls, and the sensitivity required in seeking resolution. We have the expertise to analyze medical history, if that is relevant. And, consistent with our mission to find justice for our clients, we have the judgment to help you make informed decisions about estate litigation.
