Contentious Wills, Trusts & Probate
It is our aim to resolve disputes through a non-adversarial fashion, with emphasis on the provision of a clear and structured approach to resolving matters. We work closely with you to ensure careful consideration of your legal issues and the search for a practical solution to the problems faced.
We are able to advise and, where appropriate, provide representation on:
- Claims that a will is invalid due to lack of intention and/or execution irregularities, lack of mental capacity, undue influence, lack of knowledge and approval, revocation, fraud or forgery
- Claims where there are allegations that the Grant has been improperly obtained
- Actions for the rectification of a will in circumstances where the will draftsman has failed to carry out the testator’s instructions
- Actions seeking directions of the court including the appointment of a judicial trustee
- Claims involving trusts, secret trusts, constructive trusts and mutual wills
- Removal or sanctions against executors, administrators and trustees for willful default, misconduct or recalcitrance
- Claims involving charities
- Claims under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975
