Skilled Union County Probate Litigation Attorney
Probate court can often feel like divorce court for siblings and other heirs. Having a skilled lawyer to diffuse these stressful situations is essential.
Nicholas Giuditta, founder of our law firm, is a thorough and knowledgeable probate litigation attorney. He has 30 years of experience, and can handle all aspects of probate litigation, including will contests, mishandling of trusts, breach of fiduciary duty and other estate disputes.
Understanding Undue Influence
Undue influence can occur when a spouse, child or other family member gains the trust of an individual, resulting in a rewriting of his or her will in that person’s favor. If you suspect a case of undue influence, we can help investigate the situation and take any necessary legal action. We will closely examine the deceased person’s relationship with the heir and investigate any sudden changes in his or her will or other estate documents.

Client Testimonials
I had no idea estate planning was so important until my mom was diagnosed with cancer and had 6 weeks to live. A neighbor recommended Nicholas Giuditta. The first phone call and meeting sealed the deal. His compassion, understanding, and willingness to guide me thru this process when time was of the essence lifted a large burden off of my shoulders. Estate planning at any time is overwhelming but Nick was there with professional guidance and a shoulder to lean on every step of the way. He was always willing to answer any questions, give legal advice, and assist in handling a lot of family drama. I was so pleased with Nick’s services, that my husband and I actually did ‘our’ estate planning with Nick. I would highly recommend Nicholas Giuditta! You not only receive the best professional help but also make a friend in the process!
