There are many legal issues that can result from the death of an individual. These issues may relate to the validity of the deceased’s Last Will and Testament, the interpretation of Will provisions, the inclusion or exclusion of family members in the Estate distribution, whether property (such as bank accounts) fall into the Estate or belong to a survivor as indicated on the banking records, difficulties encountered in the administration of the Estate dealing with various financial institutions and government services, and the carrying out of the Estate Trustee’s responsibilities. Any of these situations or occurrences may necessitate a court proceeding. Court proceedings may also be required by unforeseen circumstances such as the discovery of a handwritten Will or a claim being made against the Estate by an unexpected individual or creditor. The D & D Associates Estate Team has the specialized litigation expertise to handle these types of litigation matters.
