Will disputes can be tricky because you're not always sure what your next step should be. A will may need to be contested if you believe the estate has not made proper provision for you or challenged if you have concerns about its validity because of lack of testamentary capacity, lack of knowledge and approval, undue influence, fraud or other concerns about how the will was prepared and/or executed. If you're the executor of a will, you may need to defend the will where another person has threatened to make a claim against the estate or is already doing so. Fortunately, Armstrong Legal is a national law firm with more than 30 years of experience, giving clients clear, practical support during these difficult matters.

At Armstrong Legal, we help clients resolve will disputes by providing clear, practical advice on contesting, challenging and defending a will. Our contested wills lawyers will explain your rights, assess your options and help you understand the likely path forward, acting promptly to safeguard your position before deadlines may pass. We can advise on contesting a will if it excludes you or you believe that the estate has not properly provided for you. If you believe a will may be invalid, we can advise you on challenging a will where concerns involve testamentary capacity, undue influence, fraud or any other concerns that you or someone else may have about the validity of the will. We can advise you on defending a will from claims about validity or family provision if you act as the executor or administrator. We also provide assistance for other estate disputes, including disagreements about statutory will issues, estate administration, executor removal and other equitable claims such as promissory estoppel. We provide legal advice in New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, the Northern Territory, Tasmania and South Australia, as laws differ from state to state. Our national team includes lawyers across Australia who speak languages other than English, so you can turn to us, no matter if you've been looking up "estate dispute legal help Brisbane", "family provision attorney Brisbane" or "estate dispute legal advice Brisbane".

Your first step is to reach out to us for an obligation-free consultation, where you get the opportunity to explain the dispute and receive clear initial guidance. To assess your matter, a contested wills lawyer will ask about your relationship to the deceased person, the will's terms (where available), the reason behind the dispute, the estate's estimated value and nature and the other interested people involved. Should you potentially have a family provision claim, a lawyer can review the factors relevant to success, assess whether you're eligible and consider the evidence that may help support your position. Where a will's validity is contested, the review may assess the circumstances surrounding its execution or preparation, along with testamentary capacity and fraud. Guidance is also available for executors and administrators who need to respond to a claim and protect the estate's interests at the same time.
