Our firm brings a practical approach to dealing with estate disputes and we can help with a wide range of issues that can arise out of someone’s death.  We act for both those pursuing a claim or defending against one.

• Unclear Wills – Sometimes a Will doesn’t make sense or does not say what you thought it did.  There are various options on how to resolve the uncertainty.

• Disputes of Capacity or Undue Influence – Dealing with questions that arise about a will-maker’s capacity to make a Will or if they were coerced or unduly influenced in making a Will.

• Variation of Wills – A Will-maker may have made choices that treat a spouse or child in unexpected ways.  That individual may want to challenge their unfair treatment in Court.

• Disputes between Executors and Beneficiaries – It is not uncommon for difficulties to arise between Executors and the Beneficiaries of an Estate and both sides need to know their rights and responsibilities.

• Asset Disputes – including joint ownership claims on land or other assets. 

We appreciate that the issues involving estate litigation can be sensitive. We can assure you that the professionals here at  Kidston Helm Ross Lawyers will handle your interest with the care and gravity they are due.
