Contesting a Will | Your questions answered

When people talk about contesting a will, they are usually talking about challenging whether the will is legally valid. That’s different from accepting that a will is valid, but doesn’t leave enough financial provision for someone – which is a dispute usually dealt with in an Inheritance Act claim.

Does dementia automatically invalidate a will? What are the main grounds for contesting a will? What evidence is most important in a will dispute? What is a caveat?
