Fraud or forgery- contesting will
A fraudulent or forged Will is not valid and can be contested.
Fraud can take a number of forms. For example, you could have been left out of a Will because another person made misrepresentations about you to the deceased. Another example of fraud is where the person who drafted the Will for the deceased left a large portion of the estate to himself without the deceased knowing.Where you suspect there may be fraud the will can be contesting.
