Exceptional guidance through a complex family trust dispute

Our family engaged Griffin Leschefske at Pierce Atwood after a significant disagreement arose among beneficiaries regarding the administration of a family trust. From our initial consultation in his Portland office, it was clear we were dealing with a true specialist. Griff’s deep, 13-year focus on trusts and estates, particularly the litigation side, was immediately evident. He meticulously explained the nuances of Maine fiduciary law and outlined a strategy that was both pragmatic and sensitive to the family dynamics at play. His recognition in areas like Litigation - Trusts and Estates is well-deserved; his command of the procedural details and his ability to anticipate opposing counsel's moves were impressive. He successfully navigated us toward a settlement that preserved both assets and family relationships, which was our paramount goal. The only slight critique, and the reason for four instead of five stars, is that during particularly busy periods, response times to non-urgent emails could stretch to a couple of days. That said, when matters were pressing, he was immediately accessible. For anyone in Maine facing probate or trust litigation, or needing sophisticated estate planning, Griff Leschefske combines sharp legal acumen from his University of Maine School of Law training with a genuine understanding of what’s at stake for families.
