When grief is already weighing on you and your family, this is often when will disputes arise. During trying times like these, you are left to question if a will is fair, valid or truly reflective of the wishes of the person who has passed away. There may also be uncertainty about whether the will adequately provides for you, questions about how it was prepared or concerns about whether legal action by another person could affect the estate. These are the kinds of matters Armstrong Legal is here to help with. We are a national law firm that has spent more than 30 years helping Australians with significant legal matters in various areas of law, including contested wills, criminal law, family law, corporate crime and traffic law. Focusing exclusively on this area, we have contested wills lawyers who provide empathetic, professional and prompt guidance so you can better understand your responsibilities, your rights and the potential next steps. We also have easily accessible offices in locations throughout many states and territories. From your first conversation with us, know that we approach every matter with openness, honesty and a genuine commitment to putting your best interests first, no matter if you're looking up "can someone contest a will after probate has been granted", "can you contest a will after probate has been granted" and beyond.

Armstrong Legal assists clients with all aspects of will disputes, including contesting, challenging and defending a will, providing advice tailored to the laws that apply in your state or territory. The legal requirements and procedures that apply can vary considerably from one jurisdiction to another. As such, our lawyers can advise clients regarding contested wills in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory, Western Australia, the Northern Territory and South Australia. Likewise, we can provide support in challenging a will if there are concerns involving testamentary capacity, undue influence, fraud or any other concerns that you or someone else may have about the validity of the will. In addition, our lawyers maintain professionalism and compassion in every matter since we recognise that family conflict, grief and financial uncertainty can compound the difficulty of decisions that already carry lasting impact. If you've been searching for "can someone contest a will after probate has been granted", "can you contest a will after it has been probated" or "can you challenge a will before probate", you can depend on us to explain your rights, assess your options and help you understand the likely path forward so you can make informed decisions based on your individual circumstances. And to help preserve your legal options, our team acts promptly since strict time limits can apply to many will disputes.

When you reach out to us, we start with an obligation-free initial consultation where one of our lawyers will ask about your relationship with the deceased person, the nature and value of the estate, the contents of the will (where relevant), the other interested persons and the circumstances that have led to the dispute. We can then assess whether you may be eligible to make a family provision claim, whether there are concerns about the validity of a will or whether you need legal representation for defending a claim. The legal process, evidence likely to be relevant, important time limits and potential costs will all be clearly explained. Funding legal representation can be difficult in estate disputes, and as experienced lawyers, we recognise that this is especially so when access to estate assets has been delayed. With this, for some family provision matters, we may provide you with a "No Win No Fee" agreement, which means your legal fees would only be payable if you obtain a successful outcome, such as reaching a settlement with the estate or the Court ordering further provision for you. Whether you're researching "can a de facto contest a will" or "is there a time limit to contest a will", we offer the flexibility you need.
