Will Disputes and Trust Contests
Will disputes and trust contests are often very acrimonious. Rather than inflaming an already contentious matter, we facilitate effective and amicable resolutions when possible. Our goal is to resolve disputes as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible.
We use alternative dispute resolution measures (ADR) when possible, including mediation, to resolve disputes efficiently without the time, stress and cost of protracted litigation. But make no mistake; attorney Paul Hunt is an experienced trial lawyer who will thoroughly advocate on your behalf at trial if necessary to protect your rights. He has extensive experience in title research to real property. In a recent notable case, in less than a week of his entry into the case, he discovered deed research errors concerning Real Estate in a case that had been open for nearly a decade. These cases can involve large dollar value assets. Mr. Hunt's multi-disciplinary law practice can provide the key difference when you have a lawyer that also has a focus on real property (homes).
Guardianship Proceedings
If you have a loved one who is not able to make key decisions about his or her medical care, finances or daily life activities, a guardian may be appointed who has the legal authority to make those decisions. A guardianship proceeding is a court hearing before a judge, and it can be a time-consuming and costly process.
Through effective estate planning, you may be able to avoid the necessity of a guardianship proceeding. We also offer legal representation on behalf of clients in guardianship proceedings.
