Probate Litigation

julie — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 18:45:36 +0000

After a loved one has passed away, it is common for heirs and descendants to be involved in disputes. An experienced attorney is necessary to promote your interests and prevent others from taking advantage. It is also important to have attorneys with the proven ability to handle litigation in many different fields of law, since matters of wills and probate can often involve other issues such as real estate, corporate or business litigation.

We litigate claims against estates, representing either the personal representative of the estate or the creditor. We handle claims related to the validity and interpretation of a will, spousal elections and common law marriage claims, will contests, inheritance disputes, contested probate and other probate court matters. We can also help you challenge a will on the basis of undue influence or a lack of capacity.

Regardless of what issues arise, you can rely on us to protect your interests with the full strength of our knowledge and experience, with the added sensitivity of dealing with the underlying loss.

Probate and Estate Planning

julie — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 08:21:29 +0000

Our firm’s attorneys represent personal representatives (also known as executors), beneficiaries, heirs, and creditors in probate matters, handling all aspects of the process from commencing probate of a will or an estate without a will, to obtaining appointment of a personal representative, to filing of claims on behalf of creditors. We advise personal representatives regarding the administration of an estate, assisting in the preparation of the inventory, gathering of assets, payment of claims, distribution of assets, and final accounting.

Our firm’s attorneys have numerous years of experience in estate planning, preparing wills, trusts, living wills, powers of attorney, and other estate planning documents. Our estate planning group also utilizes the experience of our corporate attorneys in forming limited liability companies, limited liability limited partnerships, family partnerships, and other business entities for estate planning purposes. Estate planning involves many personal choices and we pride ourselves on the personal service we provide in helping our clients make those choices.

Michael E. Reidy, Esq.
August 5, 1918 – April 12, 2009

It is with great sorrow that we announce that Mike Reidy, our benevolent friend, mentor, and colleague, passed away, fittingly, on Easter Sunday. His smile, good-natured humor, life experience, and incredible depth of knowledge on the law will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him – our firm, the Denver legal community as a whole, his family and friends, his Church, and the Diocese of Denver. Mike joined our predecessor firm Calkins, Kramer, Grimshaw & Harring in April of 1979, and remained a valuable source of legal advice and friendship right up until the end.

Mike was a very great man who touched us all and is irreplaceable in our hearts. We were privileged to know him and work with him, and we all learned a great deal from his fascinating anecdotes about the many historical real estate transactions he was involved in throughout the Denver area. Our “Mike Reidy Conference Room,” dedicated to him at a special firm luncheon held on his 90th birthday last August, will continue to serve as a quiet reminder of his many contributions to Grimshaw & Harring and all who knew him. Rest in Peace dear friend – we will miss you.

Mr. Reidy practiced law in Colorado for over sixty years, in the areas of real estate and finance. He was was born in West Mineral, Kansas on August 5, 1918, was admitted to the Colorado bar in 1943, and joined Calkins, Kramer, Grimshaw & Harring in April, 1979.
