A Law Firm For Life
It is not unusual for wills to be contested on the grounds that some form of coercion took place in the making of the Will. Irwin Mitchell can help with any kind of issue relating to this area of the law, giving you advice and support from start to finish.
Experts In Undue Influence Claims
In order for a will to be valid, it must not have been made as a result of undue influence. Undue influence in connection with wills means coercion although not necessarily physical force.
Disputing a will on the basis of undue influence should not be done unless there are reasonable grounds for making an allegation. The burden of proving undue influence lies on the person alleging it and strong evidence will be required. We will be happy to advise further on any will disputes involving an allegation of undue influence.
