Estate Litigation
Probate attorneys serving the greater Orlando and Winter Park areas
When a beloved relative passes, it is a sad time for the entire family. But when the will of the deceased goes to probate court, that sadness can turn to disappointment or anger if anyone is left out of the inheritance or someone challenges what another receives.
At that time, the party who feels slighted can initiate estate litigation. Estate litigation brings the matter to court so a legal resolution can be found.
Understanding estate litigation
With Winter Park estate litigation, one of the most common strategies is to contest the legality of the will or trust. Among the questions that can be raised are the following:
- Was the deceased of sound mind when he or she created the will?
- Did someone else influence the deceased when he or she created the will?
- Did the deceased suffer from a medical condition or substance abuse that compromised their capacity to understand the will process?
- Are executors acting in good faith in carrying out the wishes of the deceased?
