The estate litigation attorneys at Carosella & Associates help clients with contesting wills and resolving other estate administration disputes.
WEST CHESTER, PA, March 15, 2023 /24-7PressRelease/ — Whether someone is the administrator of an estate or the person contesting a will, dealing with such matters is stressful after the loss of a loved one. Contesting a will involves challenging the admission of a will to probate or seeking to revoke the probate of a will that has already been validated by the probate court. In some cases, an individual may pursue a similar type of estate litigation to contest the terms of a trust.
The wills and estate attorneys at Carosella & Associates are experienced in all aspects of estate litigation. They help clients understand the process for contesting a will and determine whether their circumstances meet the legal grounds for challenging the validity of a will in Pennsylvania.
“It’s important to understand that Pennsylvania law only allows someone to contest a will on certain legal grounds, such as fraud, forgery, undue influence, or lack of testamentary capacity,” says Vincent Carosella, Jr., founding Partner. “Contesting a will can be a lengthy, costly process, so it’s important to have a local lawyer for will evaluate your case and carefully consider the circumstances. It’s important to act quickly if you’re considering contesting a deceased loved one’s will. Contacting our responsive team of estate law attorneys and probate litigation attorneys can help you get the ball rolling as soon as possible.”
