Will disputes often feel difficult when you're not certain about which step to take next. You may need to contest a will if you consider that the estate has not made proper provision for you, or you may wish to challenge a will if you have concerns about its validity due to 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.

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 that 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 testamentary capacity, undue influence, fraud or any other concerns that you or someone else may have about the validity of the will. 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. As laws vary across states, we offer legal advice in New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, the Northern Territory, Tasmania and South Australia. Our national team includes lawyers across Australia who speak languages other than English, so you can turn to us, no matter if you've been looking up "particulars of grounds of objection TAS", "who is eligible to make a claim NSW" or "executor duties NT".

Taking action starts with a clear conversation. We connect you with a contested wills lawyer who listens to your situation and assesses your case when you get in touch with us. You can access an initial consultation obligation-free. We start by asking focused questions about your relationship to the deceased, the terms of the will, the nature and value of the estate and the cause of the dispute. For instance, if contesting a will is your intention, we can assess your eligibility to make a family provision claim, explain what factors are important for your claim to succeed 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 impact your rights. Acknowledging that financial stress is often a concern, we may also offer "No Win No Fee" or deferred fee (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 "inheritance disputes lawyer" or "how can a will be contested".
