Can You Dispute A Will Or Contest Probate?
If you need advice about a disputed will or contested probate, Duncan McNair has acted regularly and highly successfully over the past 30 years in will disputes including matters of testamentary capacity, duress and undue influence, and in inheritance claims and can help you too.
He also acts in contentious trust matters, challenging the terms of a trust, removing or reinstating trustees, and bringing or resisting claims by beneficiaries of a trust or estate.
Such disputes can often be resolved by the thoughtful and firm presentation of the client’s case. Family situations can be very sensitive and a consensual approach leading to agreement by mediation is often desirable. Whatever situation you face at the moment, Duncan can provide you with advice about your legal rights and your options.
Clients helped include:
