Legal Advice
Do You Need To Contest A Will?
The death of a loved one is always a turbulent and emotional time. If there is an inheritance dispute, it can make things more stressful. We know how difficult it can be to be left out of a Will or when a Will dispute causes a rift in the family. Our lawyers are here to help guide you through the process of contesting a will.
Who can contest a will?
A will can be contested by anyone who thinks that the will is not valid. While a family member of the deceased usually raises the majority of inheritance disputes, there are often others who may have benefitted from prior wills, were promised something, or were financially dependent upon the deceased and may have a claim.
What are the questions to ask before contesting a will?
- Has the Will been signed correctly?
- Did the deceased understand the contents of their Will?
- Does the Will respect the wishes of the deceased?
- Are you suspicious the Will has been forged?
