By communicating openly and honestly, we ensure clients feel heard and kept informed from the outset.

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. 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 on defending a will from claims about validity, family provision or estate administration if you act as the executor or administrator. Also, we offer support for other estate disputes, including conflicts about executor removal, estate administration and statutory will issues. We provide legal advice in New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory, Victoria, Queensland, Tasmania and South Australia, as laws differ from state to state.

Taking action begins with a clear discussion. Once you get in touch with us, you will be connected with a contested wills lawyer to listen to your situation. To start, we ask specific questions about your ties to the deceased, the will's terms, the estate details and the basis of the dispute. If you wish to contest a will, for example, we can assess eligibility for a family provision claim, explaining what matters most and what evidence may support your case. At every stage, we offer structured guidance about available options, expected next steps, potential costs and any deadlines that could influence your options. Acknowledging that financial stress is often a concern, we may also offer "No Win No Fee" or Pay-at-End arrangements on a case-by-case basis following an assessment of your circumstances and the merits of your case. What's more, you can reach out to us when you're curious about "Can You Challenge A Will" or "No Win No Fee Contest A Will". If you want to contest or challenge a will, need to defend a will against a claim by another person, or would like to ask us about "lawyers for inheritance disputes" or "how many years to claim against a deceased estate", contact our friendly team of contested wills lawyers for an assessment of your case.
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.
