You might contest a will if you think the estate failed to provide appropriately for you or challenge it if you have doubts about capacity, undue influence, fraud or the way the document was prepared.

If you are left out of a will or believe the estate has not made proper provision for you, we can advise you on contesting it. If you believe a will may be invalid, we can advise you on challenging a will where concerns involve capacity, undue influence, fraud or how someone prepared the will. We can advise you regarding defending a will against claims concerning validity, family provision or estate administration if you serve as an executor or administrator. We can assist with other estate disputes as well, and this includes disagreements over executor removal, estate administration and statutory will concerns.

To get started with Armstrong Legal, reach out to us to speak with a contested wills lawyer about your situation. Beyond your connection to the deceased, your lawyer will enquire about the will's terms and the cause of the dispute. This first discussion helps the team understand whether you want to contest a will, challenge a will or defend a will against a claim. For example, where you intend to challenge a will, the team can assess concerns about capacity, undue pressure, fraud or compliance with the proper legal process. Alternatively, where you need to defend a will, your lawyer can help you mount a response to the claim and safeguard the estate's interests. At Armstrong Legal, we understand that upfront legal fees can place extra pressure on people during estate disputes, making you hesitant to ask about "What Is The Time Limit To Contesting A Will" or "Can You Challenge A Will". In select family provision matters, we may provide "No Win No Fee" options, assessing eligibility per case. Pay-at-End arrangements may also apply in some estate litigation matters, depending on your circumstances and your entitlement to a share of the estate. If you have enquiries about topics related to "contest a will lawyer blacktown" or "apply for probate nsw", contact us and set an appointment with a lawyer today.
Disclaimer: No win no fee eligibility is assessed on a case by case basis
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.
