When a handwritten will becomes the source of a family dispute, the probate process in New York can quickly become complex. In this case, our probate attorney represented an individual whose late father left a handwritten will that granted the client a larger share of the estate due to years of personal caregiving. After the father’s passing, the client’s siblings challenged the will’s validity, arguing that the distribution was implausible and unfair. The attorney’s objective was to secure recognition of the decedent’s final intentions under New York probate law and ensure that the will was admitted to probate without delay.
