Are You Considering a Challenge to a Questionable Marriage?

I serve New York state clients with probate challenges to questionable marriages that relate to:

More Than 25 Years of Trial Experience in New York State

Many different outcomes are possible when a decedent's marriage and spouse's inheritance are considered questionable and then challenged during probate.

His or her competency at the time of the will's formulation can be questioned. Allegations of undue influence by the new spouse, or child of the new spouse, can arise. Resulting late changes to the will can change the complexion of your case. A "green card marriage" or the decedent's much younger spouse can cause a post-mortem divorce trial, and a dispute over distribution of assets.

A challenge to a questionable marriage during probate can be highly complex, and best handled by a probate lawyer and litigator with many years of service. My Jonathan D. Katz law office in New Paltz can protect your rights and advance your financial interests.

Upon interviewing Jonathan Katz, I decided to retain him because I was impressed with his approach to divorce: he advocated communication, conflict reduction, and efficiency, toward reducing the stress and monetary expense already inherent to any legal action.

When my case took unexpected turns, Jonathan was agile and effective in his response, even when the straightforward divorce turned into an international custody battle that went to federal court. Responsive at every turn, efficient, and wise in his counsel, Mr. Katz's legal services gave me real value for my investment.

Being a single mom, I had enough stress in my life. I had no idea how to go about protecting my self. My daughters were my priority. Jon walked me through the process. He turned a difficult time into a workable solution.

Jon's integrity towards his clients is what makes him a standout attorney. He makes it a priority to know whats important to you. You're not just a number. He is up front with you right from the start. He will not string you along just for his financial benefit. He is only willing to settle the case if thats truly what you want. Anytime I called him I received a call back from him that day. Not someone else in the office. He is an attorney that has a passion for whats important to his clients.
