Can a person contest a Will?
In certain circumstances members of the deceased’s family or dependants may be entitled to claim against the estate on the grounds that they have not been adequately provided for. Such a claim must normally be notified within six months of the Grant of Probate being issued. The executors will be personally responsible for any successful claim during that period, so if there is any risk of such a claim the estate should not be distributed within the six month period.
