It would behave nice if your video had some information regarding a Beddoe order protect executors from costs. Also does disclosure under the Larke V Nugus override legal professional privilege or GDPR?
I will endeavour to deal with such matters, but it is tricky just keeping the channel going with so much to do and it may take a little time, I am afraid.
A friend of mine has lost his dad. His dad remarried a year ago but only been with her for about over 2yrs, don't know how long she moved in his dad's house for. The will had been changed a year ago and completely cut my friend and his brother out. She has everything! Do they have a case? My friend has found out that his step mother has been married lots of times. Do you think she has made a living out of marriage?
Hi Alf - yep, people do have a potential claim even if the will says different. A will is not the end of the story. The Inheritance Act outlines various categories of people who can challenge a will. A son would be a strong contender, especially if he has any financial difficulties himself. (If he is very rich it would be harder.) But just because she has been married lots of times and makes a living out of it - that is not likely to be an issue as long as the dad was of sound mind.
Thankyou so much for replying I really didn't expect it. My friend isn't rich and also doesn't financially rely on his dad. The women his dad married is manipulative. Could my friend have a claim that his dad was influenced by her or claim against the estate instead of the will? I suppose it's just proving it?
There may be a case for undue influence. Your solicitor can write to your father's solicitor and ask pertinent questions about the making of the will, they will send what is called a Larke v Nugus letter and take it from there.
Hi regarding spouse legal right share at probate my late father left my mother money and the dwelling house which he was the sole owner the dwelling house was undervalued at probate the house was valued at 72.ooo but later I found out its worth 130.000 to 150.000 this is where the problem is my mum is short
Can I ask a question pls. My late hubby's parents left a big apartment where his only sibling, an older sister owns it because apparently she bought off his share many years ago. She only has a husband and no children but they are both now are quite old though she is still feisty. Some friends told me I could inquire if there is any possibility of me to claim still the right of the apartment, thank you in advance.
No. But I was dependent on him albeit receiving his 60% pension, still, on his account that I came to live in his country (Italy) and was so generous and happy to have me as his wife, depending on him 100%.

Do you help the other side when you are making a case against the 1975 Act claim?
Yes, we work both for executors facing a challenge to a will as well as those making a challenge. (I think that’s your question)

The family home isn't worth £250,000.

The best plan is to live on a desert island alone, with one name on the title deed. Yours.
I probably would end up being a case study.

A claim can only be made under the I(PFDA) Act if you were dependant on your late hubby's parents, were you?
No. But I was dependent on him albeit receiving his 60% pension, still, on his account that I came to live in his country (Italy) and was so generous and happy to have me as his wife, depending on him 100%.
