Estate Disputes: What Does That Mean?
Disputes over inheritances can be settled in probate court through inheritance litigation. Disputes regarding the legality of a will or trust document, as well as disagreements among heirs as to who should get what, can all fall under this legal category. A few important facts can help you decide whether or not to get involved in an inheritance dispute:

If the facts of your case give rise to a presumption of undue influence under the law, the burden of proof may shift midway through the litigation from the individual disputing their inheritance or lack thereof to the opposing party.Resolving an inheritance dispute can be costly and time-consuming, but well worth it if your interests are protected. You should consult an attorney about the costs and benefits of contesting an inheritance before making any decisions.
If you are in line to inherit from a trust or estate and choose not to get involved in a disagreement between the beneficiaries, the other parties to the dispute may come to a decision that hurts your interests.
Mediation is a form of negotiation between the parties with the purpose of achieving a settlement agreement in order to avoid a trial in the case of an inheritance dispute. It can save a lot of time and money if you can come to an agreement using this way.
