Trust and Estate Disputes / TEDRA Litigation

When a dispute arises over a loved one’s estate or trust, the legal issues can be complex and the personal stakes considerable. Our litigation team is here to help clients navigate those challenges with clarity, confidence, and steadfast advocacy.

We represent beneficiaries, trustees, executors/personal representatives, and heirs across a range of conflicts that arise in connection with the administration and validity of trusts and estates. This includes litigation under Washington’s Trust and Estate Dispute Resolution Act, or TEDRA (RCW 11.96A). These disputes often involve deeply-held convictions about a loved one’s intentions, and they can place family members in difficult positions. We understand that dynamic, and we work hard to help clients pursue their interests while keeping sight of the practical realities at stake. We represent clients in matters including:

• Will Contests
• Undue Influence
• Trust Disputes
• Guardianship
• Powers of Attorney

We take the time to understand each client’s unique circumstances, explain their options in plain language, and develop a strategy tailored to their goals. We are fully prepared to advocate on our clients’ behalf in trust and estate proceedings, bringing a deep understanding of fiduciary law, testamentary validity, and the procedural demands of trust and estate/probate litigation. We are committed to providing the attentive, personalized service that your trust and estate matter deserves.
