Challenging a will
There are a number of instances when the will can be challenged. For example, if you felt that the person creating the will lacked the mental capacity to make fair decisions, or was influenced to adjust it to benefit certain parties, you may wish for this to be investigated.
​
Whether due to poor wording or different interpretations of the wording, conflicts may arise between representatives of the deceased and beneficiaries as to how assets should be distributed.
​
Our team can discuss your concerns, and advice on whether it is a matter than can be pursued on the basis of undue influence, ambiguity or contested legacies.
Legal experts since 1890
The loss of a family member can be very distressing for families, and a will is designed to make the handling of assets less stressful, and helps to ensure the deceased's requests are followed. On occasion, problems can arise where unexpected changes have been made, the will seems to be worded vaguely and is open to interpretation, or instances where an individual or group seems to have disproportionately benefited.
​
At T.G. Menary Solicitors, we aim to help you resolve any disputes with a will, and work towards a more amicable solution.

Professional negligence and change of representatives

A successful resolution can provide greater certainty around ownership and inherited property land registry matters while also helping to reduce delays and unnecessary legal costs that often arise in unresolved disputes.
By addressing issues early with the right legal support, clients can protect important family assets and gain a clearer understanding of their legal position. It can also help bring structure to what is often a stressful and uncertain situation, allowing families to make more informed decisions moving forward. In many cases, this clarity also makes it easier to plan ahead with confidence and focus on long-term stability for both personal and agricultural interests.
