What do we do?

- Estate Litigation
- Trust Administration

How do we work?
Given the sensitive nature of inheritance and probate issues, Wiens, Frank and Parnter always encourages our clients to attempt to resolve their issues with their family members first. Should the issue be a will contest, trust or probate matter, these issues resolved outside of litigation require an experienced attorney who can structure the settlement taking into account tax ramifications and protection of the client’s rights. However, should a relative or beneficiary refuse to reasonably negotiate, Wiens, Frank and Partner are prepared to litigate so that our clients’ inheritance and/or rights are restored.
