Claims Against a Deceased's Estate

Unfortunately after someone has died, claims sometimes do arise against the Estate.
It may be, for example, that a family member has not been included in a Will and that they have a potential claim under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975.

There may also be challenges brought against a Will based on whether the Deceased had the mental capacity to make the Will or was unduly influenced by someone else in making the Will.
These complex claims require careful investigation which needs to take place as soon as possible.
