Successful representation of a client in a dispute over the validity of a gift agreement

A dispute over the validity of a gift agreement can determine ownership of valuable real estate, so strong legal arguments and carefully secured evidence are essential from the outset. In the case described, ARROWS successfully defended the client's ownership rights against relatives challenging an earlier transfer. This article shows how litigation strategy, evidence preparation and precise court representation can protect a completed gift.
