How do you challenge a will?

In: Estates [Edit categories]

Answer:

Challenging a will is a court process and it will be in your best interest to find an estate planning attorney. That being said you need good cause to successfully challenge a will. This can be shown by one of many different ways including:

The will maker was not mentally competent at the time he drafted or signed the will
The will maker was pressured by someone to agree to those terms
The will maker has another will or trust which trumps this one
The will was not properly witnessed or signed
The will maker was mistaken or induced by fraud to sign
