It is essential to use Will writing solicitors in North Wales otherwise there may be a chance that the document is disputed when the testator dies.
There are a number of situations that may warrant the challenge but using a legal expert vastly reduces the chances of this happening, especially the common doubt about the validity of the Will.
A lost or destroyed Will is often another factor in disputes, but a solicitor will keep a copy on their office, making this issue null and void. It is important that signatures on Wills are properly witnessed and counter signed. A regular challenge to a Will is that the signature of the testator is not correct and may have been forged.
When it is felt that the testator was pressured into making particular provisions in their Will this is known as undue influence. It is illegal for someone to force or coerce someone into leaving them a gift in a Will.
Sometimes friends and family may be disappointed with their legacy and feel they must challenge the Will. Wills solicitors in North Wales can ensure that the person writing their Will is very clear in their wishes and informs their loved ones of what they can expect to avoid future issues. These legal experts can also help avoid challenges based on clerical errors or any accusations of unauthorised amendments to the document.
