Estate & Trust Disputes and Litigation

Conflicts can arise over inheritance, will validity, trusts or mismanagement. We can help navigate these conflicts.

• Challenging and defending claims for further provision - Eligible individuals can challenge a will where the will does not adequately provide for their proper maintenance and support.

• Will validity - Challenge the validity of a will due to capacity, undue influence, fraud, improper execution or where there are construction issues.

• Executor mismanagement - Advice and applications for removal when executors are not fulfilling their obligations because they are unfit, their actions or inactions are negatively impacting the administration, they don’t have the requisite capacity or no longer wish to act.

• Trusts and Superannuation - Acting where there is disagreement about the operation of a trust, or about how superannuation entitlements should be paid.
