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. During your initial consultation, your lawyer will ask about the reason for the dispute, your relationship with the deceased person, the terms of the will (if applicable), the other interested persons, and the nature and value of the estate. If you are challenging or contesting a will, we can evaluate whether you qualify for a family provision claim and review questions about capacity, pressure, fraud or the manner in which the will was made. On the other hand, should you need to defend a will, we will help you reply to the claim and protect the estate's interests. For some family provision claims, a "No Win No Fee" agreement may be offered, subject to a case-by-case assessment. This means your legal fees would only need to be paid 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 if, in some will dispute matters, you are the executor appointed under the will or have an existing entitlement to part of the estate.
