A will may be contested if a beneficiary or someone who expected to get an inheritance claims that inadequate provision has been made for them by the deceased and as a result they will suffer hardship.
Only close relatives and partners as set out in the Inheritance (Family Provision) Act can contest a will. A person has six months from the date of a grant of probate to contest a will.
Contesting a will can be a costly process which depletes the deceased’s estate. For this reason it is important to get good legal advice when making a will of considering your estate planning. We advise against diy wills and will kits as they can result in costly disputes against the estate.
