New Jersey Will and Trust Contests

It's an old tale. Ever since the ancient laws of primogeniture (eldest son gets it all) were swept away by the personal right to make a will, heirs have objected to even the best made wills and trusts. Conflicts among family members, heirs and executors can arise before or during the probate of an estate.

You may be embarrassed but you know you need help and you need the help of an experienced probate and estate attorney who knows estate, trust and probate law. You also need a tough probate, trust law and trial attorney to deal with difficult family members or an unreasonable executor/trustee, or creditor.

Don't think it's limited to just you and yours... it's everywhere. Sad but true. Maybe you're a beneficiary who’s getting the runaround from an executor, trustee or personal representative. They don't answer your calls, letters or worse, haven't sent you your money.

and NJ Probate Disputes 

The fact that a person leaves a will does not guarantee that property will be distributed according to the expressed terms in the will or trust within a will. A court generally must provide an opportunity to allow others to object to the will, and a challenge may be brought by anyone who feels the will is inaccurate or invalid in some way.
