Inheritance Disputes

What can I do if I want to dispute an inheritance?

If you believe you haven't received fair financial provision in a will or through intestacy our experienced lawyers can help you.

You can bring a claim under the Inheritance Act and we have represented clients in contested cases through to trial. We have also worked with clients to reach amicable solutions and more cost-effective solutions through mediation. In urgent cases, we can obtain injunctions to preserve assets.

If you think you may have a claim, you have six months from the grant of probate to act. 

Our dispute resolution and private client teams work together to address various disputes, including:

• Contesting a will
• Beneficiary and Executor disputes
• Undue influence and mental capacity claims
• Estoppel cases
• Claims under the Inheritance Act 1975
• Negligent will drafting or probate handling claims
