We cover a couple of cases we have dealt with involving disputes over a will. These are where a spouse or co-habiting partner do not feel as if they have been fairly treated by executors of a will.
The Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975 was an important piece of legislation, allowing parties to challenge a will, even against the wishes of the deceased person who made it.
As well as a look at these two cases (one a spouse going through a divorce at the time of her husband's death, the other a co-habiting partner whose boyfriend died unexpectedly and the family cut her out of the will), Richard Parsons gives a whistle-stop tour of the way inheritance claims are made and what categories of persons can make claims under the legislation.
