Understanding Estate Litigation


Legal Grounds for Contesting a Will

Consider contesting a will if any of the below may have occurred:

  • You’re not adequately provided for
  • You can prove the will maker was not of sound mind when they did their will
  • You believe the will was done under suspicious circumstances (ie: undue influence)
  • You were made a promise that if you did something, you would be provided for in the will.

Estate disputes are complex and strict time limits apply, so it’s critical that you seek legal advice from an estate litigation lawyer if you believe you have grounds to contest a will.
