Are you looking to contest a Will? Were you dependent upon a person who has died without leaving you properly provided for?
We handle a wide variety of disputes in this area, including Inheritance Act claims, disputes over the construction, interpretation and validity or otherwise of Wills, claims arising over the administration of estates, as well as issues concerning insolvent estates. We have also had experience of tracing lost relatives and dealing with issues concerning paternity, including obtaining DNA evidence to challenge paternity claimed by a previously unknown descendant of a deceased person.
We understand and appreciate that disputing a Will can be a painful and sensitive area for all parties. We seek to guide individuals through the difficult process of resolving disputes over a Will whilst at the same time trying to keep legal costs in proportion and under control.
Wherever it is appropriate, we encourage resolution of disputes by alternative dispute resolution such as mediation, since we recognise that it can be extremely stressful to be in litigation with members of one’s own family.
We have successfully pursued numerous Inheritance claims against estates and defended claims on behalf of executors successfully.
