ContinueBefore seeking to dispute a will, it’s important to bear in mind that in law the available grounds for challenging the validity of a Will are very limited.
The classes of people who are entitled to challenge the extent of the financial provision for them under the terms of a Will are also fairly limited – family members and blood- line relatives, people who were financially dependent on the deceased for example -
It is worth being aware that the extent to which the Courts can re-write the terms of a Will in favour of a disappointed beneficiary is also limited.
Obviously, the best way to try to prevent Will disputes is for all those concerned to be open and honest with one another and to try to see the other person's point of view.
