With more than 10,000 contested Will cases reported each year and a 5% increase in court claims between 2023 and 2024, inheritance disputes are certainly on the rise.

- The common causes of inheritance disputes including being left out of a Will, dying intestate, blended families, and homemade Wills
- How inheritance disputes can be resolved
