FAQs

Do we have to go to court?2026-01-23T20:33:56+00:00

Not necessarily. While some trust and estate disputes do require court involvement, many cases can be resolved outside of the courtroom through negotiation, mediation, or strategic settlement discussions. In fact, pursuing an efficient resolution without litigation is often in our clients’ best interests when it can achieve a fair and lasting outcome.

That said, if court intervention becomes necessary to protect your rights, enforce a trust, challenge wrongdoing, or resolve an intractable dispute, we are fully prepared to litigate aggressively and effectively on your behalf. Our role is to guide you through every option, explain the risks and benefits of each path, and recommend a strategy that aligns with your goals whether that means resolving the matter quietly or pursuing relief in court.

Our priority is always to achieve the best possible result while minimizing unnecessary stress, cost, and conflict.

How long does litigation take?2026-01-23T20:34:43+00:00

The timeline for trust and estate litigation varies depending on the complexity of the case, the number of parties involved, and whether the matter resolves through settlement or proceeds to trial. Some disputes can be resolved in a few months, while more contested or complex cases may take a year or longer. 

Our goal is to move your case forward efficiently while protecting your interests, keeping you informed, and pursuing resolution as early as possible without compromising results.
