Can I contest of challenge a Will?

22/09/2022

A Will can be contested by family members or by other persons mentioned in the Will.  There must be a valid legal reason to challenge, including: –

  • The Will was not executed correctly.
  • The deceased did not have mental capacity when writing and executing their Will.
  • The deceased was subject to undue influence when writing their Will.
  • The deceased did not confirm knowledge and approval of the content of the Will when signing.

There is evidence of fraud or fraudery e.g. allegations the testator did not create or sign the Will.
