Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much does it cost to contest a will or trust in California? A: Fee arrangements depend on the strength and value of your case. For qualifying contingency matters, we may advance costs — determined after a case review. Many matters are handled hourly or on a hybrid basis.
Q: Do you offer pro bono or free legal services?
A: No. We are a private, fee-based law firm. We handle qualifying cases on contingency, hourly, or hybrid arrangements. If you need free legal help, contact the LA County Bar Association, Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles, or your local legal aid organization.
Q: Do you represent probate administrators? A: Yes. We represent administrators and executors in contested probate matters, including beneficiary challenges, accountings, and surcharge claims.
Q: How long do I have to contest a will or trust? A: California Probate Code §16061.7 gives you only 120 days from receiving formal notice of a trust to contest it. Will contests have similar strict deadlines. Don’t wait.
Q: What if a sibling or family member is hiding assets? A: We can demand a full accounting under California law and pursue legal discovery to uncover hidden bank accounts, real estate transfers, and stolen property.
Q: My parent was manipulated by a caregiver — what can I do? A: California’s Elder Financial Abuse statutes may allow recovery of stolen assets, plus attorney’s fees and enhanced damages against those who exploited a vulnerable senior.
Q: Will my family find out I contacted you? A: Your initial consultation is protected by attorney-client privilege and kept confidential. (Note: once a case is formally filed in court, proceedings become part of the public record.)
