Many cases have highlighted the recent spate of instances where a family Will has been disputed after the death of the testator.
Will experts have identified a number of reasons why this is happening more and more, and have advised their customers accordingly.
One of the main reasons there has been an increase in problems with Wills is that there has been a rise in the number of more complex family structures. Not only does this include second and even third marriages, it also encompasses the children of these relationships. This can often result in arguments and disputes when a Will is read.
These days, there is more information about legal rights available on the internet. This means that people can undertake research about their rights. Wills solicitors in North Wales and other areas may be approached by those believing they have undertaken appropriate investigations in order to challenge a Will.
The cost of living crisis has prompted many to seek to financial awards from challenging a Will. Receiving a legacy in a Will is often seen to be a solution to a money crisis or as a way of getting onto the property ladder. If individuals see a gift in a Will as their only way out, they are more likely to fight for a portion of an estate.
