A dispute over a will can compound grief with legal doubt, making it harder for your family to understand what comes next. Whether the document is fair, valid or a true reflection of the deceased person's wishes may weigh on your mind. Concerns about testamentary capacity, knowledge and approval, undue influence, fraud, or the way the will was prepared or executed can deepen that uncertainty. As such, Armstrong Legal is here to assist you. We're a national law firm with more than 30 years of helping Australians manage serious legal matters, including contested wills, criminal law, corporate crime, traffic law and family law.

We advise clients on all aspects of will disputes, including contesting, challenging and defending wills. Whatever the case may be, we approach every matter with respect and compassion because we understand the grief, family tension and financial pressure that can accompany the process. When it comes to contested wills in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory, Western Australia, the Northern Territory and South Australia, we can explain your rights, evaluate your options and give you insight into the likely path forward. Meanwhile, challenging a will may require us to examine issues such as testamentary capacity, undue influence, fraud or other concerns about the validity of the will. For those who are defending a will, we can assist executors or administrators who need to respond to claims about validity or family provision. Further, our team can provide assistance in other will disputes, including errors in a will, estate administration and beyond. Our lawyers provide advice that reflects the circumstances of each matter, because the facts and the laws of the relevant state or territory always differ.

The first step is to reach out to us and arrange an obligation-free consultation with one of our contested wills lawyers. Throughout the meeting, we'll ask questions about your relationship with the deceased person, the circumstances surrounding the dispute, the interested parties, the estate's nature and value and any relevant details contained in the will. We can then determine whether your situation involves responding to a claim as an executor or administrator, a family provision claim or concerns about the validity of a will. We will explain the legal issues that may affect your matter, the evidence that may be required, the likely process, any applicable time limits and the possible costs involved. Eligibility for a "No Win No Fee" agreement may be available for certain family provision claims, with each application considered on a case-by-case basis. If the client has an existing entitlement to part of the estate or is the appointed executor under the will, deferred fee (Pay-at-End) arrangements may also be an option.
