What should you do if your parent has passed away, and the terms of the will are grossly inconsistent with their intentions? Many of our clients come to us after being left out or unfairly treated by a will, saying their parent “never could have intended that.” They feel someone has stolen the inheritance they were entitled to, and that their parents may have been taken advantage of, or unduly coerced into changing their will.
Probate Litigation and the Burden of Proof
Because a will is a binding legal document, it can be difficult to sway the court’s opinion in your favor in a will or trust contest. Three things must be proven against the defendant:
- they are a substantial beneficiary of the will,
- they exerted influence over the decedent to change the will in their favor, and
- they did so while in a position of trust
The Roby Law Firm is often described as a legal ministry, because their attorneys are dedicated to upholding Christian principles. They consider themselves called to the service of the client, not the pursuit of the dollar. If you need representation in Florida for undue influence in wills and trusts, a lawyer at the Roby Law Firm can help.
