We have a dedicated team of qualified Lawyers, specialising in Wills and inheritance disputes who are here to help you with contesting a Will in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne and the surrounding areas, including Gateshead, Sunderland, North & South Tyneside, Northumberland and Berwick.
Will disputes are a niche and complex area of law which require specialist lawyers. We have been recommended by the 2026 edition of the prestigious Legal 500. The publication has described our team as “thoroughly knowledgeable” and said we “stand for no nonsense”.
Many solicitors won’t contest a will on a no win – no fee basis because will disputes are considered ‘too risky’. However, because we are hugely experienced in conducting these cases and are Legal 500 recommended specialists we are prepared to back our own judgment. We have therefore developed a popular funding scheme for contesting a will on a no win – no fee basis.
We can assist in contesting the validity of Wills on the grounds of testamentary capacity, fraud and forgery, and undue influence. We can also assist with claims under the Inheritance Act.
