Family Provision Claims

Also known as testamentary maintenance or inheritance claims, a family provisions claim in wills and estates law is a legal action brought by certain family members or dependents who believe they have not been adequately provided for in a deceased person’s Will or estate.

These claims typically arise when an individual feels they have not received a fair share of the deceased’s estate, either because they were excluded from the Will entirely or because the provision made for them is insufficient to meet their financial needs.

You must be an eligible person to make a family provision application. The specific eligibility criteria for making a family provision claim vary depending on the jurisdiction but typically include spouses, de facto partners, children (including adult children), and sometimes other dependents who were financially dependent on the deceased at the time of the deceased person’s death. In some cases, stepchildren, grandchildren, and other relatives may also be eligible to make a claim.
