When a lawyer, solicitor or will writer creates a will on behalf of a client, they have a duty of care to ensure that it is properly drafted (with no errors), that it is signed and witnessed correctly, and that the will is made in a timely manner.
This legal duty of care also extends to the intended beneficiaries named within the will.
If a solicitor or will writer fails in this duty of care then a claim for any financial loss caused can be made.
If you feel that a professional has not dealt with a will, or its execution, in a professional manner then speak to the team today to talk through the specifics of your case.
