When Your Probate Dispute Centers on Competency
Is a probate dispute raging within your family as to the competency displayed by a family member who has since passed away?

I Want Fairness for My New York Probate Clients. I Work Hard to Get It.
An elderly loved one in the process of drawing up a will could be considered as exhibiting diminished capacity, or lacking competency, due to a number of infirmities: dementia, stroke, Alzheimers disease and any number of other debilitating conditions.
Even in the presence of credible estate planning, disputes can break out over a will's impact on family members. I can be of valuable service to your views on a challenge to a will. I represent family members, friends, those acting under powers of attorney, legal guardians, conservators or the estate of the vulnerable person whose competency is being questioned.

You can trust my quarter-century-plus of experience and keen knowledge of probate law. I am an attorney who thoroughly researches and investigates your case.
