Other Will Disputes
The most common will disputes are family provision applications and challenges to the validity of a will. However, there are many other types of will disputes that executors, beneficiaries and other interested parties can become involved in.
Other types of will disputes include:
- Disputes about the terms of a will (construction cases);
- Disputes about an error or mistake in a will (rectification cases);
- Disputes where the deceased person’s death has been unlawfully caused by a person with an interest in the will (forfeiture rule cases);
- Disputes about whether the executor should be removed from their position (executor removal cases);
- Disputes about how the estate should be administered or whether the estate has been properly administered (estate administration cases); and
- Disputes about the making of a will for a person who does not have testamentary capacity (statutory will cases)
