What is Contentious Probate?

Contentious probate refers to disputes that arise after someone’s death concerning the distribution of their estate, whether or not there’s a Will.

These kinds of disputes often require the help of trust dispute solicitors due to the complex nature of reaching a consensus. Disputes that are typical to a contentious probate case include the likes of disagreements over the validity of a will, the interpretation of its terms, or how the estate is being administered.

Contentious probate often leads to legal challenges and can require expert legal guidance to navigate effectively, which is why at BBS Law we are here to help.

Grounds to Make a Contentious Probate Claim

There are several grounds on which you can make a contentious probate claim, including the most common grounds that may include, but aren’t limited to:

• Invalid Will: Claims that the will was not properly executed, the testator lacked capacity, or was under undue influence.
• Lack of Financial Provision: Claims under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975 if adequate provision has not been made.
• Executor Disputes: Issues with how the executors are managing the estate or allegations of misconduct.
