The terms of a Will can cause distress. If there isn’t one, this is difficult too. Jordans Solicitors can advise on any matter where a will or inheritance is in dispute.

When a loved one passes, leaving a Will, very often, disagreement arises because of the terms of that Will. Disputes can arise about who or what is included or excluded and sometimes, whether there is a Will at all. Naturally, emotions run high and the only way to sort things out is by seeking expert guidance. QualitySolicitors Jordans can help you do things the right way, so you can have total peace of mind.

You might want to challenge:

• Incapacity
• Undue Influence
• Faliue to make provision
• Other Wills and Probate disputes

Incapacity - This is when you believe the deceased may not have had the capacity to give the instructions that led to the making of the Will. Such assessments need very careful consideration, and we have expertise in assessing capacity at the time Wills were made and determining whether an estate can be challenged on that basis.

Undue Influence - Sometimes a person who made a Will might do so benefiting person you were not expecting, or you may fear that the deceased may have bene pressured into making gifts . This in law is called undue influence and we can undertake an assessment to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to challenge a Will on that basis.

Failure to make adequate provision - The law protects certain classes of Beneficiaries in terms of making adequate arrangements for them. Also, for some Beneficiaries who were maintained by a deceased person immediately before their death there may be good grounds ot argue that provision should continue after death. This needs a careful assessment, and we are able to offer clear and careful advice as to your entitlements.

Other Disputes - There can also be a range of other issues such as Will errors, disputes between Executors or Beneficiaries and we can offer advice and assistance based on many years of experience in dealing with these matters.
