* The validity of a will
* Allegations of undue influence, fraud, or lack of capacity
* Breach of fiduciary duty by an executor or trustee
* Disputes over inheritance rights or omitted heirs
* Conflicts among family members or co-beneficiaries
* Contested guardianships or conservatorships
* Improper asset distribution
