Niroshan David receives praise for assisting a client with an Inheritance Act 1975 claim

After a loved one dies it is hoped that their affairs can be dealt with smoothly, however this is not always the case.

Disputes can arise due to a multitude of reasons including:

• Claims under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependents) Act 1975.
• Claims where a will has not been signed or witnessed correctly.
• Claims based on allegations of lack of mental capacity.
• Claims based on allegations of undue influence.
• Disputes involving Executors or Trustees.
• Disputed Powers of Attorney.

Emotions are often running high after someone dies, and if not handled quickly and carefully, a dispute can escalate.

You need a solicitor who can act quickly on Inheritance Act Claims

Niroshan is able to offer help and guidance, a recent client gave this testimonial:

“I contacted F Barnes to seek legal advice on behalf of my mother-in-law when my father-in-law died without leaving a will, which potentially could leave her homeless due to them not being married or in a civil partnership. From our initial conversation with F Barnes they gave us great legal advice on the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975. My mother mother-in-law subsequently went on to submit a claim under the 1975 Act. Niroshan acted on our behalf throughout the process and was professional, diligent, and a great support during a stressful time. Niroshan always kept us informed and gave us great advice on making cost efficient decisions when possible. We eventually reached an out of court settlement which wouldn’t have been possible without Niroshan’s hard work and support from the wider F Barnes team. I can’t thank them enough, and I would highly recommend them”.
