Disputes over wills are often difficult when you're not clear on how you should move forward. A will may need to be contested if you believe the estate has not made proper provision for you or challenged if you have concerns about its 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.

Getting started begins with a straightforward discussion. We connect you with a contested wills lawyer who listens to your circumstances and assesses your case when you contact us. There is no obligation attached to our initial consultations.

For example, where you wish to contest a will, we can assess your eligibility to make a family provision claim, explain what factors are important for your claim to succeed and identify 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. Also, we understand that financial stress is a common concern, and after assessing your circumstances and the merits of your case, we may offer "No Win No Fee" or deferred fee (Pay-at-End) arrangements on a case-by-case basis.
