Probate Administration
Probate is the legal process dealing with the administration of the estate through a will, which requires a court order for the transfer of assets from the decedent’s name to the name of the heir(s). California Probate Law mandates court supervision before property passes to the heirs and beneficiaries.

Probate Litigation
Probate Litigation is the process of filing a lawsuit contesting a will, which can arise under a number of circumstances including:

Trust Litigation
Trust Litigation is the process of filing a lawsuit contesting the validity of a trust. A trust, unlike a will, does not require a court order to transfer the assets from the name of decedent to the heir(s), but rather the trustee is empowered to administer the trust and transfer the assets according to the trust, without judicial oversight.
