We assist clients with all aspects of will disputes, such as challenging, defending and contested wills, helping clients in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory, Western Australia, the Northern Territory and South Australia. Our legal team can assist in this distinct and specialist area if you believe you have been left out of a will. On the other hand, challenging a will may be appropriate where there are concerns about testamentary capacity, lack of knowledge and approval, undue influence, fraud or other issues affecting the validity of the document. If you are an executor or administrator, we can also assist with defending a will against claims relating to validity, family provision or the administration of the estate. Since the relevant legislation and court procedures differ between states and territories, our lawyers provide tailored advice. In addition, we represent clients in other types of matters, including estate administration disagreements, executor appointments, the construction of a will, errors in a will and other equitable claims. This means that regardless of whether you're interested in "informal will lawyer SA", "unsigned will valid SA" or "court ordered will WA", you receive guidance that reflects the requirements of your particular matter.
Once you're ready to get started, reach out to us to speak with one of our contested wills lawyers about your situation. Our initial consultations are obligation-free, so you have the opportunity to discuss your relationship with the deceased person, the terms of the will (if applicable), the nature and value of the estate, the other interested parties and the reason for the dispute. We'll then walk you through your options, the likely next steps, possible costs and any time limits that may apply. Financial uncertainty is also caused by estate disputes, which can make upfront legal fees a concern, and we understand that. As a result, we may offer to act on a "No Win No Fee" basis for some family provision claims, and eligibility is assessed on a case-by-case basis after we consider the merits of your claim. For some will dispute matters, such as cases where you have an existing entitlement to part of the estate or are the executor appointed under the will, we may also offer a deferred fee (Pay-at-End) arrangement. Whether you have questions about "executor responsibilities inheritance dispute" or "contest a will solicitor parramatta", our lawyers can explain more before you decide on your next steps. If you've been researching "time limit to contesting a will", "contesting a will solicitors near me" and beyond, contact Armstrong Legal today.

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.
