LA Trust Litigation: Gain Equal Footing
For heirs, beneficiaries, and elder abuse victims in Los Angeles and across California, the cost of hiring a trust litigation attorney can feel like an insurmountable barrier — especially when those responsible for wrongdoing have already taken control of estate or trust assets. Michael Hackard of Hackard Law has been fighting these battles for more than four decades, having handled his first estate litigation case — a disputed will — over 40 years ago. Since then, he has worked on several thousand cases across California, including Los Angeles, Sacramento, and the San Francisco Bay Area, helping families reclaim what is rightfully theirs.
One of the most powerful tools available to heirs and beneficiaries in California trust and estate litigation is the contingency fee agreement. Under a California contingency fee arrangement, a client is only responsible for paying attorney fees if the case is resolved, settled, or won. The attorney's payment comes as a percentage of the settlement or recovery — which means the attorney's interests are directly aligned with the client's interests. There are no upfront hourly costs standing between a wronged heir and qualified legal representation.
This matters enormously in trust and estate disputes, where those responsible may have significant resources at their disposal. Contingency fee representation gives heirs, beneficiaries, and elder abuse victims the ability to stand on equal footing in California courts. It removes the financial gatekeeping that might otherwise prevent a legitimate claim from ever being heard.
At Hackard Law, contingency representation has made it possible for thousands of California families to fight back against dishonest trustees, financial abusers, and those who have wrongfully taken trust or estate assets. If you believe your inheritance or that of a loved one has been compromised, Hackard Law is ready to listen.
