The Greatest Heritage is the Love of a Family: The Larson Case and the Mediation of Probate Disputes

In 1981, two brothers, Ben and William Larson, began litigation that would last for four years.

Although one can only speculate, had the brothers chosen mediation, rather than litigation, to resolve their dispute, both brothers might have achieved a better outcome.
