Will Disputes and Contentious Probate
Will disputes can be very emotionally charged. Discover our supportive dispute resolution services today.
There are many reasons why you may feel that a Will is unfair or wrong.
In the UK, we enjoy a freedom to leave our estates by Will to whoever we please.
However, there are occasions when a Will may be challenged:
- The Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975 gives certain relatives, who may feel hard done by, the right to ask the courts to review a Will and to make amends if it is found that the Will is unfair.
- A Will might be invalid because of the circumstances in which it was made.
- The person making the Will might have lacked mental capacity at that time.
- Pressure and undue influence might have been applied so that the Will does not properly reflect the individual’s true wishes.
Whatever the reason for contesting a Will, our friendly and knowledgeable team are here to help.
