In this edition of Civil Justice Magazine, Chris Placitella talks with the premier estate planning and litigation lawyer Rusell J. Fishkind about his new book, Probate Wars of the Rich and Famous.  Fishkind is a professor at New York University and frequently lectures to lawyers.  Placitella and Fishkind explain that probate litigation is when beneficiaries are arguing over the inheritances outlined in a deceased’s loved one’s will.  In his new book, Fishkind discusses the six “universal sparks” of probate litigation through the framework of major pop icons and explains how they can apply to everyday estate planning as well.
