When a loved one passes away, their estate may need to be settled in a court-supervised legal process called probate.
Probate transfers ownership of a deceased person’s assets to beneficiaries.
At McIntyre Elder Law, we understand that the loss of a loved one is a profoundly emotional and challenging time.
It becomes further complicated when disputes or questions about their estate arise. This often escalates into bitter fighting and and potential court proceedings.This is precisely when you need a probate litigation attorney.
Probate litigation comes into play in various situations. Examples include disputes over the validity of a will, allegations of undue influence, potential mismanagement of an estate by an executor, or conflicts related to the interpretation of a trust.
Our probate litigation attorneys are well-versed in these areas and can guide you through these complex processes.
We shoulder the legal burdens, allowing you to focus on mourning and remembering your loved one. We’re here to honor your loved one’s final wishes, safeguard your rights, and help ensure that justice is served in your time of need.
Our free handbook outlines the 10 rules that will help you protect your assets and preserve your legacy.
If you believe a will might not be correct or fair, you may be able to challenge it legally, but there are some rules to keep in mind.
First, not just anyone can contest a will. You must be what’s known as an “interested party.” In plain English, this means you’re someone who would have received something (an “inheritance”) if an older version of the will was used, or if there was no will at all and North Carolina’s standard rules for dividing an estate were applied.
It’s also crucial to be aware of the time limits. You have three years from the date the will goes through the probate process. If you’re past that three-year mark, it’s usually too late to bring a case.
So, if you believe a will isn’t right, but wouldn’t receive anything even under an older will or with no will at all, you likely won’t be able to contest it. It’s essential to understand your legal rights and to act promptly.
