When a dispute arose among beneficiaries regarding the administration of my late father's family limited partnership, the situation felt overwhelming and emotionally charged. I was referred to Lauren Davis Hunt at Osborne, Helman, Scott, Knisely & Stanton, and it was the best decision I could have made. From our first consultation in her Austin office, Lauren demonstrated a profound command of the intricate laws governing trusts and estates. Her 18 years of experience, particularly in fiduciary litigation, were immediately evident. She meticulously explained the nuances of our case, outlining a clear and strategic path forward. Lauren’s approach was both assertive and compassionate, recognizing the personal dynamics at play while remaining fiercely dedicated to protecting my interests. Her background from Baylor Law and her recognition in trust and estate litigation were not just credentials on paper; they translated into a sophisticated, effective legal strategy. She navigated complex negotiations with opposing counsel, ultimately securing a favorable settlement that preserved family relationships far better than I had hoped. Lauren is the epitome of a trusted advisor—sharp, strategic, and genuinely invested in her clients' well-being. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
