About

Provided by Holland & Knight LLP

Holland & Knight's California-based Private Wealth Disputes practice is called upon to settle complex trusts and estates disputes that involve some of the world's largest family fortunes, complex legal questions, and emotionally charged and dysfunctional family relationships that pose hurdles to resolutions and often force matters into the courts. We represent ultra-high-net-worth individuals and their families, beneficiaries, fiduciaries, trustees, guardians and other related parties in the U.S. and the United Kingdom, Latin America, Europe and Asia in all issues related to wealth. We also are aggressive in protecting the elderly from financial abuse and have much experience in recognizing situations where a caregiver or family member has exercised undue influence to enrich themselves.


Few of our competitors have this breadth of expertise and volume of experts available to deploy nationally and internationally. While much of the work of these practices is in planning, it is our capabilities to vigorously defend clients' interests in high stakes and contentious disputes that assures them that the intentions of their estates and planning will be carried out. Clients know that we have the expertise and litigation experience to enforce estate plans. You will find many capable estate planners in the U.S., but very few that have the resources to take matters through weeks-long trials and years-long protracted and multijurisdictional litigation.
