Three Things To Do When Someone Contests The Will


Sometimes someone contests the way an estate is being handled. When you're the executor, what should you do?

The actions of an executor when an estate is contested depends on what is being questioned. Is the validity of the will being questioned? is the interpretation of a provision of the will being argued? Are the post-death actions of the executor coming into question?

Contested estates completely change the ball game. Even though there can be significant red tape in settling an estate, because you're dealing with estate lawyers, heirs, financial institutions and their lawyers, title companies, judges, and courthouse employees, at least you can get things done when all parties are cooperative.

But when you have an uncooperative heir, or someone who formally contests some estate matter, you often wind up with broken and irreparable relationships, with a significant portion of the estate winding up in the hands of the legal system.

Perhaps, but not always, you can avoid lengthy estate disputes by, early in the process, getting all parties on board with open communication and resolution of issues.

The Power of Consistent Communication During Your Case


Organization is essential, but so is staying in steady communication with your legal team. Keeping them updated on new symptoms, appointments, or changes in your daily life helps ensure your case reflects your true experience.

Even small details — a missed day of work, a new prescription, or an updated medical recommendation — can make a meaningful difference. Sharing this information promptly allows your attorney to advocate more effectively on your behalf.

Clear, consistent communication not only strengthens your claim but also gives you peace of mind. When you work as a team and keep everyone on the same page, the process becomes smoother, more efficient, and far less overwhelming.
