Common Causes of Heir and Beneficiary Disputes
Inheritance disputes can stem from a variety of complex situations, including unclear or ambiguous estate planning documents, unequal distributions that seem unfair to some beneficiaries, intricate blended family dynamics that complicate relationships, or misunderstandings about the often confusing probate process. Conflicts may also arise when beneficiaries feel that estate assets are being mismanaged, improperly allocated, or intentionally withheld, leading to heightened tensions among family members.
