This type of litigation requires a knowledgeable attorney with years of estate and probate experience.
I am attorney John Neher. I have earned a reputation as a successful estate and probate litigator.

Kansas City Will Contest Attorney
People challenge wills and trusts when they believe there has been misappropriation of family assets or other issues, such as:
- Undue influence (fraud, deception, intimidation, greed or coercion)
- Improper allocation
- Mismanagement
Mental incapacity of the person who has made the will, especially if it is an elderly person, is another reason why wills and trusts are often challenged. The substantial number of medical malpractice cases I handle has given me experience reviewing medical records. I can help you determine whether mental incapacity was a factor.
Sometimes payable-on-death financial account information, transferable-on-death property deeds and beneficiary deeds for real estate are not in agreement with an estate plan. Unless the discrepancies are challenged, the money or property will pass automatically to the person named as the recipient for payable-on-death or transferable-on-death assets.
