What is contentious probate?

When beneficiaries believe there is something amiss - be it concerns over the deceased's mental capacity, suspicions of undue influence or disagreement over whether someone has received a reasonable financial provision - probate cases can escalate into serious disputes. This is what we call ‘contentious’ probate. If you're involved in such a dispute, the Switalskis team is here to help.

The other area of concern is that, even where medication is prescribed appropriately, patients are not made aware of its unusual and damaging side effects.
