WILLS AND ESTATE DISPUTES

Our Gold Coast commercial litigation team can assist with all aspects of Wills and Estates Disputes. These types of disputes can occur over the administration of a Will after a loved one’s passing, and these situations demand both legal expertise and a sensitive approach. Often, questions arise such as “Why did my dad leave me out of his Will?” or “Why was I promised the house but the Will left it to someone else?” 

We provide compassionate, yet strategic support to help you navigate these complexities with confidence and clarity.

At Daniels Legal, we offer robust legal representation whether you’re contesting a Will or defending one. We understand that every case is unique, and our tailored approach is designed to secure a fair outcome that honours the wishes of the deceased while addressing the concerns of all parties involved and being fair to those who ought to have been taken care of. By seeking early legal advice, you can ensure that your case is handled efficiently and effectively.

Family Provision Claims - also known as testamentary maintenance or inheritance claims - allow certain family members (such as children) or dependants to challenge a Will if they believe they have not been adequately provided for. Whether you’re a spouse, de facto partner, child (of any kind), or other eligible dependant, our team will help you understand your eligibility and guide you through the legal process to fight for your fair share of the estate whilst still honouring your loved one.

Estate law involves very specific timeframes, making prompt action critical. Contacting us as soon as possible ensures that we can take the necessary steps to protect your interests before you lose the right to do so. Delaying could compromise your entitlement and your chance to resolve the dispute favourably.

We recognise that disputes over Wills and Estates occur during times of deep personal loss. That’s why our approach combines legal strategy with genuine compassion. This is for all types of legal matters but particularly for estate matters. From negotiating settlements to representing you in court, our team is dedicated to achieving fair, just outcomes while providing the support you need during this difficult period.

If you’re facing a dispute regarding a Will or an estate, or if you need assistance as an executor managing estate litigation, contact us today for an obligation-free initial consultation. Our dedicated team on the Gold Coast is ready to help you navigate these challenging times and secure the outcome you deserve.
