What Is Trust & Probate Litigation?
Trust and probate litigation refers to legal disputes that typically arise among family members during the administration of a deceased person's estate or trust.
Probate is the legal process used to settle a deceased person's debts and distribute their assets. A court-appointed or designated representative, usually named in the decedent's will, is responsible for ensuring that the estate’s assets are properly distributed and any outstanding debts are paid.
Trust is a legal arrangement for managing and distributing assets, often created by an individual who wants to avoid probate. By transferring assets into a trust, the individual can name beneficiaries to inherit the assets. Trusts may be established while the person is alive or as part of their will after death. A trustee is assigned to oversee the management of the trust’s assets for the benefit of the beneficiaries.
