To get started, reach out to us to speak with one of our contested wills lawyers. Our initial consultations are obligation-free, allowing you to discuss your relationship with the deceased, the terms of the will (if applicable), the nature and value of the estate, the other interested parties and the reason for the dispute so we can better understand your circumstances. From there, we can assess whether you may be eligible to make a family provision claim, review concerns about the validity of a will or help you respond to a claim if you're defending a will. If you've been looking up "best lawyer to contest a will" or "who can make a claim against an estate" to find support, we can explain your options, the likely next steps, possible costs and any relevant time limits. Following an assessment of your eligibility and the merits of your claim, we may offer to act on a "No Win No Fee" basis for some family provision claims. We may also offer a deferred fee (Pay-at-End) arrangement in some will dispute matters, provided you have an existing entitlement to part of the estate or are the executor appointed under the will.
