Will disputes often arise while families are grieving and trying to understand what should happen next. A family member may have concerns about whether the will is valid, fair or faithful to the deceased person's wishes. Executors and administrators may also face claims from people challenging or contesting a will for different reasons, whether it's a perceived inadequate provision from the estate, testamentary capacity, undue influence, fraud or other concerns. For more than 30 years, Armstrong Legal has been advising Australians on serious legal matters from offices in various states and territories. We are a national law firm that works across several areas of law, including contested wills, criminal law, family law, corporate crime and traffic law, with a dedicated Contested Wills & Estates team that works exclusively in this specialised area. With sensitivity and professionalism, we explain your rights, responsibilities, evidence requirements and available options in easy-to-understand terms, offering you timely and clear advice throughout the estate dispute. We have also been given recognition as the Recommended Wills & Estates Litigation Law Firm by Doyle's Guide every year from 2021 to 2025. Because of this, whether you have been looking up "statutory will WA" or "estate dispute lawyer liverpool", rest assured that our lawyers act with integrity and place your best interests at the centre of every decision.

We assist clients with all aspects of will disputes, such as challenging, defending and contested wills, helping clients in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory, Western Australia, the Northern Territory and South Australia. Our legal team can assist in this distinct and specialist area if you believe you have been left out of a will. On the other hand, challenging a will may be appropriate where there are concerns about testamentary capacity, lack of knowledge and approval, undue influence, fraud or other issues affecting the validity of the document. If you are an executor or administrator, we can also assist with defending a will against claims relating to validity, family provision or the administration of the estate. As the relevant legislation and court procedures are not the same across states and territories, our lawyers provide advice tailored to where your matter falls. In addition, we represent clients in other types of matters, including estate administration disagreements, executor appointments, the construction of a will, errors in a will and other equitable claims. This means that regardless of whether you're interested in "statutory will WA", "dementia will validity TAS" or "dementia will validity WA", you receive guidance that reflects the requirements of your particular matter.

Reach out to us for an obligation-free initial consultation, and our contested will lawyers will discuss the nature and value of the estate, your relationship with the deceased, the terms of the will where relevant, the other interested persons and the circumstances that have led to the dispute. Whether you are considering a family provision claim, questioning the validity of a will or responding to a claim as an executor, we will explain the likely next steps of the process, your options, timelines and possible costs. We are also mindful that legal costs can weigh heavily on your mind during estate disputes. We may offer a "No Win No Fee" arrangement for some family provision matters, with eligibility determined by each individual case. Under this arrangement, your legal fees would only be payable if you obtain a successful outcome. Depending on the estate litigation case, we may also be able to offer a deferred fee (Pay-at-End) arrangement where fees are paid after the matter has concluded. The same flexibility and commitment to your unique needs extend when you turn to us, no matter if you've been looking up "contest a will lawyer wollongong" or "contest a will law firms Melbourne".
