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. Concerns may also arise about how the will was prepared, whether it properly provides for you or whether another person's legal action could affect the estate. For such matters, Armstrong Legal is here to help. 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. With contested wills lawyers focused exclusively on this area, we are able to deliver timely, professional and empathetic advice that helps you understand your responsibilities, rights and the options available for moving forward. Across many states and territories, we also maintain easily accessible offices, so help is always close by. 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 "family provision legal advice Perth", "inheritance dispute law firm WA" and beyond.

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. On the occasion that you're omitted from a will or think that the estate has failed to make suitable 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 testamentary capacity, undue influence, fraud or any other concerns that you or someone else may have about the validity of the will. If you are an executor or administrator, we can provide legal guidance on defending a will against claims relating to validity or family provision. We also assist with other estate disputes, including disagreements about estate administration, executor removal, statutory will issues and other equitable claims such as promissory estoppel. Because laws vary from state to state, we offer legal advice across New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, the Northern Territory, Tasmania and South Australia. 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 "family provision legal advice Perth", "family provision lawyer WA" or "family provision legal help Perth".

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. A contested wills lawyer will ask about your relationship with the deceased person, the terms of the will (where available), the nature and estimated value of the estate, the other interested people involved and the reason for the dispute. Determining whether you may have a family provision claim involves a lawyer reviewing your eligibility, assessing the evidence that may support your position and considering the factors that may influence success. When the validity of a will is challenged, the review may examine the circumstances of its preparation or execution, 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.
