Disputes over wills are often difficult when you're not clear on how you should move forward. You may need to contest a will if you believe that the estate has failed to make proper provision for you or challenge a will if you have concerns about validity arising from 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 the executor of a will, you may need to defend the will where another person has threatened to make a claim against the estate or is already doing so. Fortunately, Armstrong Legal is a national law firm with more than 30 years of experience, giving clients clear, practical support during these difficult matters.

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. We can advise you on contesting a will if you find that you've been omitted from it or believe that the estate has not made an appropriate provision for you.

We can advise you regarding defending a will against claims concerning validity or family provision if you serve as an executor or administrator. We also help with other estate disputes, including disagreements about executor removal, statutory will issues, estate administration and other equitable claims such as promissory estoppel.

To get started with Armstrong Legal, reach out to us to speak with a contested wills lawyer about your situation. In addition to asking about your relationship with the deceased, your lawyer will ask about the terms of the will, the nature and value of the estate and the reason for the dispute. This first discussion is obligation-free and allows the team to understand your goals, including whether you want to contest a will, challenge a will or defend a will against a claim. For instance, if you intend to challenge a will, the team can advise you about testamentary capacity, knowledge and approval, undue influence, fraud or any other concerns that you or someone else may have about the validity of the will. Alternatively, should you need to defend a will, your lawyer can advise you on your response to the claim and protect the estate's interests.
