DISPUTING A WILL.

When it comes to challenging a Will after someone has unfortunately passed away, having a knowledgeable lawyer on your side who knows the probate process inside out is often simply not enough. We believe taking a human approach can make all the difference during such a challenging time.

Legally, probate can involve parties disputing how to divide someone’s estate. Stress and emotions can run high between executors and trustees when sorting out Inheritance Act claims, apportioning property and family heirlooms, or passing on other assets that once belonged to a loved one. And on a personal level, the strain of dealing with probate can be reduced when your lawyer genuinely listens to your situation, is friendly and approachable – and is someone you trust.

If you want to challenge a Will and are unsure where to turn or what to do next, please have an informal conversation with our team. They will be both supportive and sensitive to what you are going through.
