Defending and Contesting a Will in Australia

At PK Simpson Solicitors, we understand that family disputes over wills and estates represent some of the most emotionally charged legal battles people face. Our expertise in this complex area of law helps families navigate these difficult waters while protecting their interests and honouring their loved one’s memory.

The Changing Legal Landscape

In our experience the complexity of this area of law is increasing not only because of changing family dynamics but also due to the demographics of Australia’s ageing population.

When you do your Will make sure you consider and manage your digital profile and keep the details current.

Future of Will-Making

No doubt in another 10 years the technological landscape will have taken another leap and new considerations will need to be incorporated into the practice of will-making.
