I limit my practice to Estate and Trust Litigation. Most of our clients are individuals, but I also represent banks, corporate fiduciaries, non-profits and others in disputes over inheritances. These include will contests, trust contests, claims in estates, breach of fiduciary duty claims, contested accountings and other estate, probate and trust matters.

We were thrown into an absolutely brutal family estate battle that dragged on for nearly 5 years, with emotions running high and multiple attorneys pulling in different directions.

Hired Mr. Padgett to assist with dissolution of irrevocable trust - previously unsuccessful with other legal counsel. Because of his professional, competent help, the judge ruled in my favor. He is a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend.
"Greg is a true professional. He knows the probate litigation area well and I have referred cases to him."
"As an estate planning attorney (33 years) I need to refer clients and prospects to an experienced will/trust litigator from time to time. In Indiana, there are only a handful of attorneys who, in my opinion, have the requisite skill set and experience to handle estate and trust-related litigation. Attorney Gregory L. Padgett is always my first choice of litigator for Indiana-based disputes. Greg achieves good results for his clients, whether through discovery and depositions, mediation or trial."
