Probate and Trust disputes

If you find yourself involved in a dispute over an estate or trust contact JMW on 0845 872 6666 or fill out our online enquiry form and one of our team of approachable and practical lawyers will be on hand to help you find resolution to your problems.

Whether you wish to contest the will of a loved one, or find yourself at odds with your fellow executors or trustees JMW’s specialist team are able to offer sensitive guidance and direction at what is often a very difficult and emotional time.

There are specific rules which govern whether a will can be disputed.  For example, it is possible to dispute a will if you feel that the person who made it did not have the mental capacity to make or will or they were forced into making their will in a certain way.  If your spouse, partner or parent has excluded you partly or entirely from their will it may be possible to make a claim against the estate.  Our lawyers can guide you through the rules and let you know whether your situation falls into one of the categories and help you to work out the best way forward.

We can also help with situations where the will has not complied with the formal requirements to make a valid will or there has been a mistake made by the person who drafted the will which has resulted in the deceased’s wishes not being put into action.

If you would like to talk to one of the team on a no obligation basis, call us on 0845 872 6666 or get in touch via our contact form.
