Disinherited Heirs
A spouse, child or any heir who receives nothing under a will, trust, or other estate planning means, may have remedies to claim his or her inheritance. At Inheritance Lawyers, we have the skills and expertise in representing the interests of disinherited heirs. Our attorneys are dedicated to maximizing clients’ options and strategies, and working collaboratively with families to achieve mutually beneficial solutions to the inheritance disputes while minimizing, if not eliminating, the needs for litigation.
Disinheritance can cause deep and lasting intra-family rifts among those who are named as beneficiaries and others who are not mentioned.
These conflicts, if not probably managed and resolved, often escalate into litigation; thereby, making the situations worse, adding even more resentments and ill wills to the volatile situation.
Thus, at Inheritance Lawyers, we are committed to handling and settling inheritance disputes effectively and efficiently, with special emphasis on preserving family relationships, legacies, and assets for the collective family’s benefits.
