Disputes over a Will can arise when family members or beneficiaries believe that the deceased’s intentions have not been properly reflected, or that the distribution of the estate is unfair. These situations are often sensitive and emotionally challenging, particularly when they involve close family relationships.
At Hassall’s Litigation Services, our Victoria-based Will dispute lawyers provide clear, practical advice to help you understand your rights and options. We work with clients across Victoria to resolve estate disputes as efficiently and respectfully as possible.

We assist clients with a range of estate and probate disputes, including:
- Contesting a Will where there are concerns about validity
- Family provision claims where an eligible person has not been adequately provided for
- Undue influence affecting the terms of the Will
- Lack of testamentary capacity at the time the Will was made.
