There are many driving forces behind legal disputes among family members within the course of an administration of an estate or trust. After the second parent has died, many adult children feel unbridled to experience their lust for power and control. Unresolved emotional wounds from childhood days can sometimes drive adult behavior. The opportunity to “do battle” with a brother or sister over money in a parent’s estate is often the excuse needed to act out long held resentments, justified or not. A more aggressive family member often seeks to stake out an unreasonable legal position, whether for financial gain or to inflict emotional pain, in hopes that other family members will not stand up for their rights.
