Kalamazoo Estate Litigation Attorney
Protecting Your Rights & Your Family’s Legacy in West Michigan
After someone passes away, their estate must be administered properly to ensure that their assets are divided according to their will. If a dispute arises in the course of estate administration, it may be necessary to resort to litigation to resolve the issue.
At Willis Law, our Kalamazoo estate litigation attorneys represent all parties — beneficiaries, trustees, and fiduciaries — in disputes during the estate administration process. Though we strive to resolve disputes through negotiation or mediation to save our clients time and money, we know that sometimes litigation is unavoidable. In these situations, we are prepared to take the matter to the courtroom and fight to protect our clients’ rights.
