Contesting a Will in New Jersey

New Jersey and Newark Will Contest Attorneys

The death of a family member often brings surviving kin closer together. Unfortunately, the opposite is sometimes the case: after a parent, brother or sister dies, children or siblings squabble over the provisions of the will. A contested will can lead to one family member bringing a lawsuit to challenge the validity of a will or request a court's interpretation of its terms.

You may believe that the personal representative in charge of dispersing the estate is not complying with the intent of the will.
You may believe that an elderly person was coerced through undue influence into signing a will that unfairly affected your inheritance.
You may be a creditor who has been shortchanged after the death of a debtor.

Regardless of the particular circumstances of the will contest that you are concerned about, Ehrlich, Petriello, Gudin, Plaza & Reed, Attorneys at Law in Newark and New York City welcomes the opportunity to evaluate your case.
