Will disputes can place extra pressure on families at a time when grief, uncertainty and legal questions already feel difficult to manage.

To get started with Armstrong Legal, reach out to us about speaking with a contested wills lawyer regarding your situation, as we offer obligation-free initial consultations. At your initial consultation, your lawyer will ask about your relationship with the deceased person, the nature and value of the estate, the terms of the will (if applicable), the other interested persons and the reason for the dispute. If you want to challenge or contest a will, we can assess whether you may be eligible to make a family provision claim, as well as review concerns about capacity, pressure, fraud or the way the will was made. In contrast, for cases where you defend a will, we can support your response to the claim and preserve the interests of the estate. For certain family provision claims, we may provide a "No Win No Fee" agreement assessed on a case-by-case basis. This means that your legal fees would only be payable if you obtain a successful outcome, such as reaching a settlement with the estate or the court ordering provision for you. We may offer a deferred fee (Pay-at-End) arrangement in some will dispute matters if you have an existing entitlement to part of the estate or are the executor appointed under the will. You can speak with our contested wills lawyers for an obligation-free case assessment, whether you're browsing for "contest a will solicitor hornsby" or "can a will be contested before probate".
