From questioning the validity of a will to seeking further provision from an estate or responding to a claim as an executor, we provide assistance across a wide range of legal issues. Challenging a will may be appropriate where there are concerns about circumstances affecting the validity of the document. If you are seeking greater provision from an estate, our lawyers can advise on the legal requirements for contesting a will. We also represent executors and administrators who require assistance with defending a will against family provision applications or allegations that the will is invalid. Beyond these matters, we advise on a range of other contested wills disputes, including estate administration issues, executor disputes, rectification matters and statutory will cases. Court procedures vary between jurisdictions, which is why we tailor our advice to the legislation and requirements relevant to your state before any further steps are taken. Regardless of which specific path you take, our lawyers will explain your rights and evaluate your options, even if you're just starting your search for "unsigned will valid NT" or are ready to take legal action. This same dedication to your needs applies when you turn to us when you've been browsing for "testamentary capacity NT" or "statutory will NT".
When you reach out to us at Armstrong Legal, you'll get an obligation-free initial consultation with a lawyer, during which they will ask about your relationship with the deceased person, the terms of the will (where applicable), and the nature and value of the estate. You may also be asked about the other interested persons and why the dispute has arisen. That information allows the team to assess whether you may have grounds to contest the will, whether concerns about validity require closer review or whether you require support defending the estate against a claim. You will then receive practical guidance on the key issues, the evidence that may be relevant, the next steps to consider, possible costs and any time limits that could impact your position. A deferred fee (Pay-at-End) arrangement may be available for some disputes, while certain family provision claims may be eligible for a "No Win No Fee" arrangement. Each case is assessed individually. No matter if you're browsing for "estate dispute attorney Melbourne", "contest a will lawyer penrith" or something else, you may want clear advice at the outset to help you decide how to proceed with greater certainty.

Jonathan was great to work with, professional, reliable, and easy to talk to. They explained everything clearly, stayed on top of things, and really made the whole process a lot less stressful. Highly recommend if you need someone who knows what they’re doing.
