William Henry Oast III

Bill assists Executors, Administrators, Trustees, Conservators, and Beneficiaries with litigation arising from their duties. His extensive experience in the field of Elder Law gives him an advantage when addressing your individual legal needs. Typical fiduciary litigation cases include: Estate Administration and Probate litigation, Will Contests, Beneficiary Disputes, Augmented Estate claims, Trust Administration litigation, and Claims against a Fiduciary.

Unfortunately, due to advanced age, dementia or other illness, those we care for become, over time, unable to care for themselves and make their own decisions. If the individual has not executed a Power of Attorney and Advance Medical Directive, the last resort available to ensure that the individual has good financial, health, social, and quality-of-life decisions, made on their behalf is to petition for Guardianship or Conservatorship.

Oast & Taylor’s Estate and Trust attorneys can help you with the administration of the estate or trust. If you have been named as an Executor and/or Trustee to perform one of these functions, you may have legal responsibilities to many parties. Bill can assist you with the administrative duties that come with these responsibilities.
