Estate litigation occurs when someone is challenging the validity or management of any aspect of an estate plan. The most common disputes involve a will contest in which one or more relatives are alleging undue influence in the creation of a will. Other common cases involve disputes over the management or disbursement of trust funds and alleged mismanagement during the probate administration process.
