Disputes over a will can place added pressure on families at a time when grief, uncertainty and legal questions are already difficult to cope with. You may worry that a will is unfair, invalid or not a true reflection of the deceased person's wishes. Similarly, you may need to contest a will because the estate did not make an appropriate provision for you. Armstrong Legal supports clients through these serious matters with clear guidance, steady support and prompt, sensitive assistance. As a national law firm with more than 30 years of experience, we have helped Australians manage complex legal issues across contested wills, criminal law, family law, corporate crime and traffic law. Our contested wills lawyers practise solely in this area of law, guiding clients through their rights, responsibilities and next steps with professionalism and empathy. In addition, our dedicated Contested Wills & Estates team has been highlighted in Doyle's Guide as a Recommended Wills & Estates Litigation Law Firm from 2021 to 2025.

We prioritise your interests and offer straightforward guidance so you can make confident, informed decisions.

Armstrong Legal helps clients with the full range of will disputes, including contesting a will, challenging a will and defending a will. Our contested wills lawyers explain your rights, assess your options and help you understand the likely path forward so you can make informed decisions before taking the next step. If you have been omitted from a will, we can advise you on your options for contesting it in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory and South Australia. If you suspect a will is invalid, we can advise you about capacity, undue influence, fraud or whether the will was made correctly. If you are an executor or administrator, we can help you in defending a will against claims about validity, family provision or estate administration. We also provide support for other estate disputes, including matters of will interpretation, rectification, executor removal, statutory wills and estate administration disputes. Our national team includes lawyers across Australia who understand diverse cultures and speak languages other than English, all of them ready to help, whether you've been looking up "Family Provision Mainteance Claim Nsw" or "Who Is Entitled To Claim Under Family Provision Act Nsw". As well, because we recognise that estate disputes can cause grief and family conflict, we deal with each matter sensitively and respectfully.

To get started with Armstrong Legal, reach out to us about speaking with a contested wills lawyer regarding your situation. During your initial consultation, your lawyer will ask about your relationship with the deceased person, the terms of the will, the estate and the reason for the dispute. If you are challenging or contesting a will, we can evaluate whether you qualify for a family provision claim and review questions about capacity, pressure, fraud or the manner in which the will was made. Contrasting this, if you must defend a will, we can assist in responding to the claim and safeguarding the estate's interests. In certain family provision claims, a "No Win No Fee" agreement may be available after a case-by-case assessment. In this arrangement, fees become payable only when the parties agree or the Court orders it, with the costs deducted from the estate. For some estate disputes, we can agree to a Pay-at-End arrangement if you have an entitlement to a share of the estate. You can speak with our contested wills lawyers for a case assessment, whether you're browsing for "grant of probate qld" or "lawyers for inheritance disputes". If you have questions about "Contest Will Lawyer" or "Time Limit To Contesting A Will", schedule an appointment today.
