Litigation

Probate & Trust

Disagreements among family members concerning the distribution of property or the decedent’s true intentions are emotionally difficult.

We balance financial aspects of litigation with the emotional issues that can motivate familial litigants.

Bill Boyes, John Farina, and Peter Matwiczyk are probate and trust litigators. They are not estate planning attorneys practicing outside their expertise and experience. Each of the Partners has successfully litigated hundreds of estate and trust disputes.
