Estate Litigation | Family Provision Claims
Some Wills treat family members unjustly, whilst others ignore the financial needs of dependents.
What's more, a Will itself may be challenged if the will maker did not know or approve of its contents, did not possess the requisite mental capacity, or was a victim of undue influence.
Informal Wills, i.e. Wills which are either unsigned or incorrectly witnessed, are always problematical documents, subject to close scrutiny by Probate Courts.
A Will can be contested or challenged if...
- it has been incorrectly executed or tampered with
- it was executed under pressure from others, or the will maker was incapable of making a Will
- it has been incorrectly administered
- insufficient provision has been made in a Will for a spouse, child or close relative
- the will maker has failed to meet a financial obligation to provide for certain persons, including dependents, under existing State or Territory family provision laws
Our Probate Lawyers take instructions to...
- challenge unfair, irregular or informal wills
- contest Grant of Probate or Administration applications
- apply to a Court for family provision on behalf of worthy relatives or dependents
- resist family provision claims made against Estates that have no merit
