"I would say don’t get involved. Worst case you’ll end up with an antagonistic neighbour." He is selling the house so that shouldnt be a problem x | |||

"So if people have seen some of my other threads they will know i havent always been on good terms with my next door neighbour , well she died just after christmas . The thing is she left the house and everthing to her son but she told me lots of times it was to be split between him and her daughter the thing is he is now keeping it all . The daughter has been there when she has told me that, the daughter is now contesting the will and wants me to state what i know to the solicitor , do i get involved ?" Hmm..tricky one. I doubt anything said verbally will hold up in a court of law. I wouldn't get involved if it were me. Hopefully she will get something if she is contesting the will. It seems odd that your neighbour was saying that, but doing something completely different, is there any evidence of your neighbour making her will under duress? | |||

You cannot contest a will over hearsay and gossip, the lawyers are only instructed to deliver on what the persons will states, she could take it too court but in all honesty she wont have much luck, the reason I am saying this is I went through something similar and ended up costing me money which i did not have only for my lawyer to tell me there was not much else he could do, as i say its sad that it has come to this but the have to act out their mothers last will and testament to the letter. | |||
