Our Dispute Resolution Solicitors are always there for you

Although these types of cases are often complex and upsetting for the parties involved, our specialist team has extensive experience in successfully resolving these disputes.

We recognise the importance of trying to preserve family relationships where they are affected by the dispute, and so place great importance on Alternative Dispute Resolution.

Our experienced solicitors will always recommend the use of mediation wherever possible. This will save you and your loved ones the stress, time and financial expense of litigating through the Court system.

Time Limits for Disputed Wills and Probate

In circumstances where you wish to dispute the amount left to you by a loved one, strict time limits apply. You have 6 months from the date of the grant of probate/letters of administration being issued in which to bring a claim.

If you wish to dispute a will for another other reason (for example, if you suspect undue influence) please seek advice as soon as possible, as it may be necessary to enter a caveat with the Probate Registry to prevent a grant of probate being issued.

It is therefore important to seek legal advice as soon as possible should you have any concerns about a loved one’s will.
