⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding legal service – highly recommended! We are extremely grateful to Randle & Taylor for their professionalism, responsiveness and support during one of the most challenging periods our company has faced. A special thank you to Jonathan Brohier, who has been absolutely outstanding throughout the entire process. Jonathan was incredibly responsive, acted quickly when urgent matters arose, and consistently provided clear, practical and reliable advice. Most importantly, we always felt that we could genuinely rely on him when we needed support the most. His commitment, professionalism and calm approach made a significant difference to our company during a very difficult time. Jonathan went above and beyond what we expected from our legal counsel, and we truly appreciate having him by our side. Randle & Taylor has provided us with a 5-star level of service, and Jonathan is an exceptional lawyer who we would have no hesitation recommending to other businesses. Thank you, Jonathan and the entire Randle & Taylor team, for standing with us through a difficult chapter. We sincerely appreciate your support and dedication.Posted on Google![]()

Angus and Jonathan helped us with a legal issue, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Not only they did an excellent job, but they also genuinely cared about us and our situation. They took the time to listen and made us feel supported throughout the process, something that isn’t always easy to find in the legal world. If you’re looking for legal help that is both highly professional and genuinely personal, I couldn’t recommend them more.Posted on Google![]()

Estate Litigation and Will Dispute FAQs
On what grounds can you contest a Will in Australia?
The contents of a Will can be contested in Australia by law if there is good reason. Some of the grounds for contest include:
- The deceased did not have the mental capacity needed to understand their Will at the time it was made.
- There is a later Will of the deceased.
- The Will is not validly made in accordance with the Wills Act.
- It is challenged by family members of the deceased on the basis that it has not made adequate provision for a member of the deceased’s family pursuant to the Inheritance Family Provision Act 1972.
To contest a Will or make a claim against a deceased estate, it’s advisable to contact a solicitor or estate lawyer, like Randle & Taylor Barristers & Solicitors, who specialise in estate litigation and dispute resolution.
How do you handle an inheritance dispute?
Most inheritance disputes (or disputed Wills and estates) can be resolved in an informal settlement conference or pre-action meeting where the parties attend a meeting in person with one of our solicitors to try and resolve a dispute before it proceeds to litigation.
Settlement conferences and mediation are a good option to reduce legal costs associated with an inheritance dispute.
In our experience mediation is successful at resolving disputes at least 80% of the time.

Randle & Taylor Barristers & Solicitors provide legal advice in a variety of areas including family law, sales of business, building and construction law, conveyancing, drafting agreements, wills and estates, debt collection, property law, property litigation, residential leases and commercial litigation.
