Mom left the house to him? The one who never moved out?
🟡 Undue influence is real. You can still fight back.
Wrongfully Cut Out of a Will or Trust?
A caregiver. A sibling. A long-lost “friend.”
If someone manipulated your loved one near the end of their life — and you or your family were unfairly written out of a will or trust — you may have the legal right to challenge it.
I'm John Donahue, Probate Litigation Attorney
I spend nearly every day in the Stanley Mosk Courthouse in downtown Los Angeles, fighting for rightful heirs and family members who've been cut out of estates due to fraud, undue influence, or mental incapacity.

Let’s talk — no cost, no pressure. If I take your case, we’ll build a real plan to protect your inheritance.
Common Situations I Handle:
A parent changes their will late in life, cutting out longtime heirs
A sibling or caregiver pressures a vulnerable elder to change their estate plan
A will or trust was updated when your loved one had dementia or Alzheimer’s
You were left $1 or written out completely — and it doesn’t feel right

Will Contests – Challenge suspicious late-stage changes
Trust Contests – Undo manipulation or challenge a shady trustee
Probate Administration – Handle the entire legal process for families
Estate Planning – Wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and more
Contingency Fee Available:
Can’t afford a lawyer? If your case qualifies, I may work on a contingency basis — no upfront fees. I only get paid if we recover your rightful share of the estate.
