Our Practice Areas

Walter Hamberg, III has three decades of experience as a litigator in state and federal courts at both the trial and appellate level. He focuses his practice in the area of fiduciary litigation, which includes estate and trust disputes, fiduciary accountings, will contests, fraudulent transfers of property, as well as contested guardianships and conservatorships.

  • Estate and Trust Litigation

    We represent individuals and entities in Estate and Trust disputes, including heirs, beneficiaries, personal representatives and trustees.

  • Breach of Fiduciary Duty Claims in Estates and Trusts

    The law in Georgia sets a high standard of conduct for executors of wills, administrators of estates, trustees of trusts and guardians or conservators.

  • Fiduciary Accountings

    The law requires any fiduciary, whether executor, administrator, trustee or conservator, to maintain accurate and complete records of receipts and disbursements, and transactions performed in their fiduciary capacity.

  • Fraud, Undue Influence and Lack of Capacity Claims in Wills and Trusts

    Disputes can arise where a testator of a Will or grantor of a Trust make suspicious changes to their testamentary plans or instructions for post death asset management.

  • Contested Guardianships and Conservatorships

    Georgia Law provides for guardianships and conservators for minors as well as for incapacitated adults.

  • Alternative Dispute Resolution, including mediation and arbitration

    Litigation is often the result when the disputed assets of an Estate or Trust are significant, or there is strong emotional tension in the family.
