In addition, he has litigated cases involving trusts, wills, will contests, will construction, declaratory judgments, prenuptial agreements, post-nuptial agreements and related issues in Lexington and Louisville, and as far east as Ashland, Catlettsburg and Pikeville, and as far west as Hopkinsville and Trigg County, Kentucky. Since 2011, Glen has been included annually in Best Lawyers in both the Trusts and Estate area of practice of law, which includes estate planning, and also the Litigation – Trusts and Estates area of practice of law.

For years, he has also focused his practice upon how estate planning techniques may impact upon couples who later divorce.
