Our Idaho Falls litigation attorneys can assist you with many types of cases, including those involving:

• Bankruptcy Litigation. A straightforward, conflict-free bankruptcy case will not require any litigation. In some cases, however, a creditor, trustee, or filer may need to initiate adversary proceedings to resolve a dispute relating to the bankruptcy. Adversary proceedings may involve clarifying whether a debt can be discharged, determining whether all estate property has been appropriately disclosed, or objecting to any of the court’s, trustee’s, or debtor’s actions. 
• Breach of Contract. Individuals and companies rely on contractual agreements to safely conduct business and complete corporate transactions. When a person or entity is harmed because another party fails to uphold their contractual responsibilities, the injured party can pursue legal action and potentially obtain compensation to cover their losses. 
• Failures to Disclose Property Defects. In Idaho, sellers are required by law to fill out property disclosure forms in advance of a real estate transaction. This means home sellers must proactively inform prospective buyers of any known property defects, such as structural problems or pest infestations. If a property owner fails to disclose known defects, a home buyer can attempt to hold the seller accountable in court. Conversely, Montana law does not explicitly require sellers to make any disclosures. However, they cannot intentionally misrepresent the state of the property (including any known defects), so there may still be cause for legal action if there is evidence a seller deliberately misled a buyer.
• Guardianship and Conservatorship Disputes. When someone is unable to care for themselves or manage their own affairs without outside assistance, a court may permit a guardian and conservator to look after their well-being and finances, respectively. The process of becoming a guardian or conservator can be contentious, particularly if family members disagree on who should care for the ward or whether a guardianship or conservatorships is even necessary. These conflicts must be resolved through litigation before a guardianship or conservatorship can be established. 
• Misappropriation of Trade Secrets. Many companies are understandably concerned about the unauthorized dissemination of proprietary information. Most businesses will use non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) to limit the possibility of leaks. If an employee, independent contractor, or any other party breaks their NDA, your business can take legal action to obtain compensation for the damage their breach caused. 
• Will Contests and Other Estate Planning Disputes. Interested parties have the right to contest a deceased person’s will on certain grounds, such as lack of capacity, undue influence, and execution problems. A will contest freezes the probate process and must be decided through litigation before any distribution of assets can occur. If the will contest is successful, the current will is discarded. If another valid draft of the document exists, that will may be entered. Otherwise, the deceased person’s estate becomes subject to their state’s intestacy laws, which generally means their property will be divided amongst their most immediate surviving heirs.
