How long after probate can a will be contested (UK)?

When someone passes away, finding out that you’ve been left out of their will - or that the contents don’t reflect what you were led to expect - can be deeply upsetting. For many, this concern only becomes real after the probate process begins and a copy of the will becomes available. By this point, the estate may already be in the hands of the executor, and some beneficiaries may have received part of their inheritance. You may feel like it’s too late to ask questions or take action.
