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 not made proper provision for you or challenge a will if you have concerns about the validity because of 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 it if another person is making a claim against the estate or has threatened to do 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.

For example, if you wish to contest a will, we can identify what evidence may support your case, assess your eligibility to make a family provision claim and explain what factors are important for your claim to succeed. Throughout the process, we provide structured advice on your options, probable next steps, projected costs and any relevant time limits that may impact your rights.
