Rectification Claims.

Will Rectification Claims and Resolving Errors in Wills.

A rectification claim is quite simply when someone’s will contains an error which only comes to light after they have died.

If this occurs, our experienced solicitors can rectify the will to make sure the deceased’s intentions are still carried out.

The contentious probate solicitors here at Lanyon Bowdler have the know-how and expertise to guide you through the process from start to finish.

We offer a range of pricing options, such as fixed fees so you know from the outset how much our services will cost, as well as service level guarantees.

Head of the contentious probate department, associate solicitor, Claire Vale, is one of only two solicitors in the local area to be a member of the Association of Contentious Trusts and Probate Specialists (ACTAPS).
