Probate Law

Probate Lawyer

Settling an estate is not always an easy process, but it can be especially difficult when there are disputes and complications during probate. In some cases, litigation may be necessary to resolve the issue and reach a beneficial conclusion. Probate litigation often involves more than just estate law; it can also require real estate sophistication and litigation in other forums. 

At Pavone & Fonner LLP in San Diego, we have litigated difficult probate, trust and other estate issues arising out of that process.  We are committed to helping you move forward to a beneficial resolution of the probate process. 

Many issues can result in probate litigation. Probate is a legal process often connected with settling the estate of a person who recently died, but when there are disagreements between beneficiaries and family members or other complications, it may necessitate litigation. Reasons that probate litigation could be necessary include: 

• Lack of a proper estate planning
• Disputes between beneficiaries – and sometimes predatory — parties to an estate
• Rightful claim to the family home and real property or distribution of assets

Our California litigation attorneys are adept at navigating difficult litigation cases that involve multiple areas of law, contentious parties and other complicating factors. 

You do not have to navigate your probate disputes on your own. You can rely on our experienced San Diego attorneys to help you pursue conclusions that will work for you and your family. Contact our office at 619-821-9255 or email us for information regarding a free initial evaluation of your case.
