Yes, wills can be contested on grounds such as lack of testamentary capacity, undue influence, fraud, or inadequate provision for family members. We have extensive experience in will disputes and can advise whether you have grounds for a successful challenge.

When someone dies without a will (intestate), their assets are distributed according to state intestacy laws. This may not reflect their wishes and can cause delays and additional costs. Having a valid will ensures your assets go to your chosen beneficiaries.

Estate administration involves obtaining probate, identifying and valuing assets, paying debts and taxes, and distributing assets to beneficiaries. As executors’ lawyers, we guide you through this complex process and handle all legal requirements.

You should update your will after major life events such as marriage, divorce, birth of children, significant asset changes, or death of beneficiaries. We recommend reviewing your will every 3-5 years to ensure it reflects your current circumstances and wishes.
