Areas of Practice

Wills and Estates

All of the wills and estate lawyers at McLellan, Brennan currently have Estates practice. We will meet with a client and analyze their family and financial situation and provide advice to assist in the following:

• Assisting client to structure the Estate to reduce Probate Taxes.
• Advising clients who are getting married regarding marriage contracts as part of their Estate planning.
• Litigating Estate disputes.
• Creating Wills and other Estate planning tools.
• Wills
• Powers of attorney
• Medical directive and living wills
• Establish and administer trusts
• Estate litigation

Furthermore, we are finding that the area of estate litigation is increasing. We have many clients who object to the way that an estate or trust, to which they are a beneficiary of, is being administered. We are able to represent those clients through the litigation process either by negotiation, mediation, alternative dispute resolution, or ultimately before the courts in making sure that their rights are upheld. We have sought to uphold or challenge in appropriate cases the terms of a will. A will that can be proven to be made by a person under duress, or who has diminished capacity can be subject to challenge.
