We are one of a relatively small number of law firms who can advise those in dispute concerning Wills, Trusts or Powers of Attorney.
Bereavement is a time of emotional turmoil and people are not always provided for in the way they had expected or been promised. Especially now that there are many second families and step-relationships, a death can cause disagreement between those left behind.
We have a long and successful track record of representing those bringing or defending claims concerning:
- Estates where no Will has been made (‘intestacy’)
- The validity or content of a Will or trust
- Wills where reasonable provision has not been made for dependants
- Wills where provision has not been made even though it was previously promised informally (‘breach of trust’ claims)
- Rival claims by former spouse, children or step-children
- Alleged undue influence of others in the creation of Wills or trusts
As well as issues which arise following a death there can also be issues when someone is no longer able to manage their own affairs. If there is any dispute as to who can or should manage the affairs and make decisions for a vulnerable person we can advise on the best to challenge – or defend – arrangements concerning Powers of Attorney or Court of Protection.
Whatever your situation, why not call us on 01904 558600 or click on our enquiry form so that we can explain how we can best help you.
