Difficulties in will disputes arise when you're not clear on what should be done next. You may need to contest a will where you believe that proper provision has not been made for you by the estate or challenge a will where concerns exist 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 acting as the executor of a will, you may need to defend the will if another person has threatened to make a claim against the estate or is already making one.

We start by asking focused questions about your relationship to the deceased, the terms of the will, the nature and value of the estate and the cause of the dispute. For instance, if contesting a will is your intention, we can assess your eligibility to make a family provision claim, explain what factors are important for your claim to succeed and what evidence may support your case. At each stage, we give structured guidance on your available options, likely next steps, possible costs and any time limits that may impact your rights. We also acknowledge that financial stress is a common concern, which is why, following an assessment of your circumstances and the merits of your case, we may offer "No Win No Fee" or deferred fee (Pay-at-End) arrangements on a case-by-case basis.
