REPRESENTING WITH RESPECT

There is often confusion and uncertainty around Wills. How do you contest a Will? Do you have proper grounds to contest? Have you been unfairly left out of a Will? Do you feel you haven’t received what you deserve from a deceased estate?

​

Wills and Estate Lawyers Brisbane

 

In the majority of cases when a person passes away, the executer of their estate will be dealt with according to the wishes of the Testator (or if there wasn’t a Will, the intestacy laws of the state where the deceased person resided will determine how the property is distributed upon death).

 

Our Wills and Estate services include:

  • Preparation of Wills

  • Testamentary Trusts

  • Enduring Power of Attorney (EPOA)

  • Probate

  • Estate Administration

  • Letters of Administration on Intestacy

  • Contesting and defending a Will

  • Acting as Executors, Administrators or Trustees

  • Estate Planning

  • Claims against Estates

 

In some circumstances you may wish to contest the Will. Grounds for contesting the validity of a Will include:

  • The deceased did not have the appropriate mental capacity to make the Will

  • The Will was not signed and witnessed properly

  • The Will has been fraudulently changed after the deceased signed it

  • You feel there is a more current version of the Will than the one in question

  • The deceased was unduly influenced in making the Will (against their wishes)

  • the Will is unclear and/or cannot be understood. 

 

We understand this can be an extremely emotional and upsetting time, so we make sure to treat each case in a sensitive and straightforward manner.
