BECK & GUNN LAW OFFICES - TOPEKA, KANSAS

Probate Litigation

When the time comes, we are determined to make the probate process as painless and smooth as possible when it comes to the distribution of a loved one’s estate. Read more about how we prepare for this through our Estate Planning and Probate practice area. 


However, disputes concerning wills, trusts and the distribution of estates are sometimes inevitable during the probate process. So whether you need representation as the estate and the executor or as a family member, that’s where Beck & Gunn Law comes in as Topeka’s preeminent probate litigation attorneys. 


Some common probate litigation issues include:


  • Inheritance disputes: where the beneficiaries disagree on how an estate should be distributed
  • Abuse of power of attorney: it is believed that the power of attorney is not acting in the best interest of the person who appointed them
  • Guardianship contests: disagreements over who may be best suited to act as a legal guardian for another person
  • Administrator appointments: in the absence of a will where the family cannot agree on the appointment of an administrator of the estate
  • Validity of a will or trust, including:
    • Lack of testamentary capacity: the testator was not of sound mind when executing the will
    • Undue influence: someone believes the testator was influenced by another person into dividing their estate in a particular way


At Beck & Gunn, our attorneys have both the experience and the compassion you are looking for when it comes to probate litigation. From simple circumstances to more complex cases, we’ve seen it all and understand that each case is unique and should be handled as such. Additionally, we understand that many of these issues are emotionally charged and stressful. So if you are accused of wrongdoing or if you believe you have been wronged during the probate process, you can trust that, as your probate litigation attorneys, we will advocate for you every step of the way.
