Why Probate Disputes Arise

Probate can be a complex and emotionally charged process, increasing the likelihood of disputes. 

Common issues include:

• Claims of improper estate handling
• Concerns about the performance of the executor or administrator
• Disputes over the validity of the will
• Allegations of fraud or deception in the will's creation
• Claims of being overlooked or unfairly treated in the inheritance

These issues can disrupt the probate process, making swift resolution essential.

Probate disputes often involve disagreements among heirs, beneficiaries, or between the estate’s executor and the individuals involved. Such disputes can arise at any stage of the probate process.

Understanding California Probate Code

California law provides specific guidelines for handling probate disputes. 

Key sections include:

• §2405: Addresses disagreements involving caretakers, beneficiaries, and other parties. An arrangement can be documented and submitted to the court for approval.
• 2406: Covers disputes between caretakers (guardians or conservators) and other parties regarding the deceased’s property and assets.

These provisions ensure that disputes are resolved in accordance with the law, but they require court acceptance for validation.
