Probate & Trust Services We Offer

Probate and trust litigation processes have many legal nuances and provide many opportunities for disputes to arise, making legal support a valuable resource. RMO Lawyers offers services in the following areas to provide clients in Houston with the best possible results for their cases.

Trust litigation disputes can arise over the interpretation of the trust document, disagreements among beneficiaries, allegations of trustee misconduct, challenges to the validity of a trust, and more. Our trust litigation attorneys in Houston can provide the guidance necessary to navigate these disputes and fight for your inheritance.

Probate estate litigation is a complex process as all parties work to ensure an outcome that aligns with the interests of the deceased. Our Houston probate litigation lawyers assist families in navigating the necessary procedures and managing disputes so they can protect their claims to an inheritance and preserve the wishes of the deceased.

Conservatorships and guardianships are valuable in protecting vulnerable individuals and their assets, but these arrangements can be complex, and you should seek the assistance of an experienced attorney. If you need support in establishing guardianship or conservatorship in Houston or have a dispute with a current arrangement, we can help.

Financial elder abuse occurs when a bad actor uses deception, coercion, or other means to exploit an individual and obtain access to their assets. Our financial elder abuse lawyers in Houston can help victims gather evidence around the alleged abuse and build a case to restore their assets. We also help those wrongfully accused defend their alleged actions and restore their reputation.
