Trusts and Estates

The Charleston Group offers the full spectrum of trusts and estates advice, from individual wills to comprehensive wealth transfer plans. We take a strategic approach, combining expertise from our business, real estate and tax groups to create effective solutions for our clients.

We also advise clients in regard to trust and probate controversies, will and trust contests, and breach of fiduciary duty claims. Because these matters may become contentious, our litigation team stands ready to resolve any difficulties that may arise.

Our lawyers also advise public and private companies, charitable organizations and tax-exempt organizations on matters that range from charitable giving plans to the creation, structure, capitalization, management, financing, and continuation or sale of family-owned businesses.
