Will Dispute Lawyer & Contesting Wills

Wills and Estates constitute a mainstay of our legal practice. Because of this focus, we maintain up-to-date knowledge of the latest developments in this complex and specialised area of the law.

Estate matters are inextricably linked with family relationships. In this environment, we work with sensitivity and discretion to provide our clients with quality solutions.

Wills

You work hard to build up and maintain your assets. It makes sense to take the same sort of care in making sure that your loved ones get the benefit of them when you are gone.

But if you don’t have a will, your property will be divided up according to a set formula, whether you like it or not. And if you don’t have any next of kin when you die, your property will go to the State.

Our Wills provide a tailor-made solution to your succession requirements and offers assurance that your property will be distributed in accordance with your wishes.

Disputed Estates & Contesting Wills

The family discord and soured relationships that can arise out of disputed estates form the best advertisement for making sure you have an effective, legally prepared Will. But once the problems arise they need to be resolved.

Northern Beaches Lawyers provide practical, business-like advice on disputed estates. We aim to resolve disputes with the minimum of conflict and cost, while making sure your legal interests are defended to the fullest extent.

Thanks to Graeme, Blaise and their team at Heckenberg Lawyers for helping us finalise our matter in a timely manner. They were always very helpful and professional. They took care of everything very well, which meant that there was no added stress on me and my family. Jane A.

I found Heckenberg Lawyers to be very professional and knowledgeable. Graeme took the time and explained the entire process to me. He was never pushy nor was he just after "his cut" as so many other practices are. He was at all times looking out for the best interest of the estate and not wanting it to be eaten. I found his staff to be extremely thorough and attentive. I would have no hesitations to recommend this practice if you want the best outcome possible.

Blaise was extremely professional in assisting with all matters to do with my fathers estate and probate. She made an extremely complex process very easy to understand and instilled great confidence at a difficult personal time for our family.

If you need legal representation in a matter to do with Wills & Estate law I highly recommend Graeme, Blaise and the whole team at Heckenberg. Their knowledge and expertise in this area of the law was a huge comfort at a very difficult time, saving all parties involved time and money in the long run. Thanks again .!
