The Bleecker Law Firm’s attorneys are available to handle all your family’s disputes. Whether you have a will contest, questions about setting aside a will, or if you are unhappy with your inheritance, we may be able to help.
Some issues we can examine for you include setting aside a will for undue influence, lack of capacity, or improper execution. A surviving spouse who is unhappy with the terms of a will may choose to elect to take 1/3 of the decedent's probate estate instead of taking under the will.
In addition, if a will fails to name or provide for a spouse, the spouse must receive a portion of the testator's estate as provided by South Carolina law, unless it appears either from the will or from other evidence that the omission was intentional. These matters are best handled by the skilled probate litigation attorneys of The Bleecker Law Firm.
