Wills and Trusts Litigation
Will and trust litigation in Nevada is a legal process that involves resolving disputes related to wills, trusts, and estates. It can be a complex and time-consuming process that requires the assistance of an experienced attorney.
Will contests are the most common form of probate litigation. A will contest involves an individual who had something to gain or lose from the invalidation of the will. However, strict time limitations are enforced as to when the individual must file these claims. The assistance of experienced legal counsel is often required to comply with filing deadlines in a timely manner and to preserve the litigation effectively.
Trust or probate litigation, like any other litigation, occurs in a courtroom before a judge, and in some instances, a jury. There are many reasons why litigation arises in probate court. Estate administration problems, breaches of fiduciary duties, and improper distribution of assets often lead to litigation. A personal representative must act in good faith and must administer the estate and distribute assets as required under the will and by law. The same is true of a trustee under a trust.
