Litigation Counsel

The Sterling Law Group regularly serves as litigation counsel to estate planning attorneys, probate practitioners, business counsel, and professional advisors when advisory matters transition into adversarial proceedings.

Our role is to protect the client’s interests while preserving professional relationships and institutional continuity.

Scope of Representation

• Trust and will contests involving estates exceeding $2 million
• Trustee and executor breach of fiduciary duty litigation
• Fiduciary accounting disputes
• Shareholder and derivative actions in closely held entities valued above $5 million
• Minority owner oppression claims
• Complex business contract disputes
• Post-trial motions and appeals arising from our own cases

Referral Relationship Commitment

We do not compete for planning, transactional, or advisory work. When engaged as litigation counsel, we respect existing client relationships and maintain appropriate communication with referring attorneys throughout the matter.

Continuity & Institutional Stability

The Sterling Law Group is engaged in a structured leadership transition designed to ensure long-term continuity for clients and professional partners.
