Trust Disputes

Assistance to Resolve Trust Disputes

The DiCello Firm, Mentor, Ohio

Oftentimes, people with substantial assets put much of their property into trusts in an effort to avoid probate and smooth the transfer of assets to a spouse, to children, to charities or other intended beneficiaries. Administration of a trust after a death sometimes leads to allegations of violation of fiduciary duties on the part of the trustee.

High-Dollar Estates Often Involve Trusts . . . and Disputes Over Trusts

Trusts attract people with wealth because of their potential to substantially minimize probate costs and gift and inheritance tax liability. Transfer of ownership of out-of-state real estate can be facilitated through a trust.

Did a Trustee Hide Assets?

Where there is ease of transfer, there is perhaps also ease of wrongdoing on behalf of anyone who has access to trust assets. If you face disputes in your family or involving any person who left assets behind in a trust, contact an experienced probate litigation attorney.
