The most common will disputes involve family provision claims and challenging a will and its validity, but estate disputes include other matters as well. From how an estate is being administered and whether an executor should continue in their role to an alleged mistake in the wording of a will or another matter within a specialised area of estate law, you may face other types of situations. Armstrong Legal's Contested Wills & Estates lawyers work exclusively in this field and assist beneficiaries, executors and other interested parties across a broad range of disputes. Our team can also assist with defending a will, statutory will applications, equitable claims against estates and other types of disputes that you may become involved in.

When you reach out to us for an obligation-free initial consultation, Armstrong Legal will explain the likely costs involved, the available funding options and whether your matter is suitable to proceed before you make any commitment. There may be an opportunity for legal assistance on a "No Win No Fee" agreement for some family provision claims, and eligibility for this is assessed on a case-by-case basis. You do not pay legal fees upfront under this arrangement, and fees are delayed until the matter has been resolved or if you achieve a successful outcome, such as reaching a negotiated settlement or obtaining a Court order for provision from the estate. If you already have an entitlement to part of the estate or you are acting as the executor under the will, a deferred fee (Pay-at-End) arrangement may also be available in some will dispute matters.

Jonathan was great to work with, professional, reliable, and easy to talk to. They explained everything clearly, stayed on top of things, and really made the whole process a lot less stressful. Highly recommend if you need someone who knows what they’re doing.
