Wills and Probate Law

We are solicitors in London WC2 and Gloucestershire  UK

Our lawyers advise on Wills,  powers of attorney and probate, including contentious probate

‘Contentious probate’ covers all aspects of a deceased person’s estate over which there is a dispute. For example:-

• Do you want to make a claim against someone’s estate?

• Do you believe that a testator lacked mental capacity when making a Will?

• Do you believe that the will of a deceased person was invalid?

• Do you believe that you should have been left something under a Will?

• Do you believe that a signature on a Will has been forged?

• Are you an executor who is disagreeing with another executor in respect of the administration of an estate?

• Is an executor of an estate trying to coerce you to do something you do not want to do?

• Are you a family member who is entitled to a share in someone’s estate and you cannot agree how the estate should be administered?

• Are you entitled under someone’s Will and are unhappy with how it is being administered?

• Are you arguing about the interpretation of a Will?

• Do you feel that you were entitled to more than you have been given under a Will or intestacy?
