More so than most other areas of litigation, trust and estate disputes can be emotionally draining and difficult. These disputes often involve sensitive and deeply rooted issues among family members that go beyond the claims being litigated. We are thoughtful of the difficult and personal nature of these matters. We work closely with our clients to understand their objectives and to lead them through this difficult process.
Our attorneys have litigated a broad range of trust and estate issues, including trust interpretation, undue influence, tortious interference with expectancy, and breach of fiduciary duty. We have also represented clients in matters involving the Illinois Disposition of Remains Act. Our clients include beneficiaries, executors and trustees.
