Types of Will & Estate Disputes
Will Challenges & Family Provision Claims
These disputes arise when a person has been left out of a will or received less than they should have received from a will or deceased estate. A Family Provision Application may allow you to receive more from a deceased estate.
Will Validity Disputes
These disputes arise where the legitimacy of the will is questioned, such as where the deceased did not have the mental capacity to make a will or that the will is a forgery.
Will Interpretation and Rectification
These disputes include what is known as “construction disputes” and “rectification disputes.” Construction disputes are where the meaning of the will is unclear and requires the clarification of the Court. Rectification disputes are where the will does not say what the testator intended it to say and requires the Court to “rectify” the will to correct the mistake.
Probate & Executor Disputes
These disputes are where the executors under a will or administrators of an estate face difficulties.
Negligent Will Drafting
Sometimes the solicitor that drafted a will for a deceased person may not have done so with the care and skill required.

What our clients say
"From the day Langham Lawyers took over we learnt that not all solicitors are equal. At our first conference Irma Remic organised for a barrister also specialising in will disputes to also be there. That was the first time we actually understood what our case involved. Irma was very understanding in supportive in a case that brought up good and bad memories. She really cared about my case and would keep me updated even following the mediation. I am so happy with the result..."
