A dispute over the identity of the correct beneficiary

We worked with a woman to successfully claim over £450,000 as the correct beneficiary to her late father’s estate. Her father’s sister and nephews had denied he ever had any children so it was necessary to use a caveat to block them from obtaining a grant of probate and then distributing the estate to themselves. This was a contested proof of parentage case that was ultimately resolved after DNA evidence was obtained.
