Will Contests

Experienced Will Contest Lawyer

Sometimes, during the probate process, the validity of a will is challenged. Challenges are often based upon errors in execution, undue influence on the deceased when the will was created, and incompetence of the deceased when the will was created, among other things. Natural children, when they are minors, have rights that may void portions of an otherwise valid will. Having an attorney familiar with these proceedings can make a difficult and often lengthy process easier.

At Wellington Y. Kwan, Inc., we are familiar with every aspect of the probate process as well as the process of creating a valid will. Our attorneys are experienced in assisting clients in will contests. While some will contests have been known to drag on for many years, an experienced attorney may help to expedite the process. Our attorneys will give you honest advice about what might serve your interests best.

A will contest lawyer should understand the probate process. The steps that are taken to “prove” the will in probate highlight the areas in which will contests often arise. Knowing the territory makes the process easier to predict and to understand.
