Clarksville Probate Litigation Attorneys
Helping Clients With Probate Matters in Tennessee

When Probate Litigation is Necessary
In an ideal situation, a decedent’s will can pass through probate with no issue and no delay. However, any sort of complication that slows down the process could end up requiring litigation to resolve amicably. At the least, a Clarksville probate lawyer from our firm can be retained to review and interpret a will, trust, or other estate plan tool to determine how it was meant to operate and which party has interpreted its instructions more accurately.
Probate litigation in Tennessee could become necessary if:
- A will is drafted incorrectly and cannot be interpreted reasonably by the probate court.
- Someone challenges a provision in a will, such as the naming of beneficiaries, and provides convincing evidence that the challenge is validated.
- A party has reasonable belief that the will was created in undue conditions, such as a third party intentionally influences the testator for their advantage.
