Texas Will Contests and Probate Litigation
Sometimes the terms of a Will are so confusing that different heirs or putative heirs under the Will might assert conflicting claims against the executor or one another. Probate litigation can also focus on disputes as to asset-valuation, the value or enforceability of certain creditor's claims, or the alleged failure of a personal representative to properly administer the estate.
At McCulloch & Associates, our attorneys can represent a party to a Will contest, handle disputes between trustees and beneficiaries, and resolve disagreements between a trust and the decedent's estate. For sound advice and skilled advocacy in any probate litigation, contact one of our lawyers in Houston.
