Why You Need Legal Help with Will Challenges
Challenging a will is never simple. It touches family, finances, and legacies—all while unfolding in an emotional and high-stakes environment. A poorly handled dispute can not only cost you your rightful inheritance but also fracture family relationships and drain estate assets.
Whether you were left out of a will, suspect undue influence, or believe the deceased lacked mental capacity, you need an estate litigation lawyer who understands the legal standards, deadlines, and strategies required to protect your rights. With strict time limits and complex court procedures, hesitation can close the door on your claim.

Can I contest a will?
Yes. If you were excluded or treated unfairly, and there’s evidence of undue influence, lack of capacity, or other legal defects, you may be able to challenge it in court
What Are the Grounds to Contest a Will?
In Ontario, the recognized legal grounds include:
-
Lack of testamentary capacity
-
Undue influence or coercion
-
Improper execution (failure to follow legal formalities)
-
Fraud or forgery
-
Ambiguities or errors in the will
What is the most common ground for contesting a will?
The most frequent disputes involve:
-
Lack of capacity (the deceased did not understand what they were signing)
-
Undue influence (pressured or manipulated into changing the will)
What is undue influence?
Undue influence occurs when someone manipulates or pressures the deceased into changing their will—often secretly, through dependency, intimidation, or control.
How do you prove undue influence when contesting a will?
Proving undue influence is challenging because it usually occurs in private. Evidence may include:
-
Testimony from witnesses
-
Medical records showing vulnerability
-
Financial records or sudden changes to the will
-
Patterns of isolation or dependency

Reviews &
Testimonials
DIXI ENERGY2025-07-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. May’s legal representation was nothing short of exceptional. We were going through an extremely difficult and emotionally draining situation, and from the very beginning, May showed total dedication, professionalism, and—most importantly—a genuine care for our rights and well-being. Throughout the entire process, she made sure we were always kept informed about what was happening and explained everything clearly so we didn’t feel lost or overwhelmed. It was obvious that she—and her whole team—put real effort into advancing our interests every step of the way. We really noticed the difference compared to the other side’s lawyers, who simply didn’t show the same level of commitment or attention, at least from our experience. What I appreciated most about May was her honesty. She didn’t try to sugar-coat anything or make unrealistic promises. Instead, she gave us a truthful picture of our case right from the beginning—what the risks were, what might happen, and what to expect. That kind of honesty made us feel we could really trust her. She was also very clear about legal fees. Yes, her services are on the higher end, but she was upfront about all the costs, how the billing worked, and what might affect it. That kind of transparency is rare, and it meant we were never caught off guard. Beyond her own impressive knowledge and skill, May has built a very strong and well-run firm. From her assistants, to the associates we worked with, and Luna—her accountant—everyone was just lovely to deal with. They were responsive, respectful, and clearly cared about doing things right. All in all, we felt completely supported. Not only does May know what she’s doing, but she truly cares—and that made all the difference for us. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend May to anyone who needs strong, honest, and capable legal help. Farzad2025-07-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had the privilege to work with May and team on a tough shareholder buyout! Cannot say enough of how dedicated and passionate May and her team is for their business! I would definitely recommend them for any legal services specially on litigation side. Keep going May and I look forward working with you! Liubov Melnikova2025-06-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been ME Laws client since the day May started the firm. I have seen the firm grow from nothing to a well oil machine. I can rely on anyone in the firm to work with because May has built something try fantastic! God job ME Law. Olga Milman2025-06-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team at ME Law are a God send. They are always available when I need them. They got me a big payout and worked very closely with me on my corporate matter. On top of all that, I have never seen a firm ever in Toronto that is very detailed with their dockets. I know exactly where my money has gone. They are a 5+++ firm. Adelya M2025-05-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a complex cross-border contract issue with our firm, and they handled it with incredible care and confidence. I had a great experience with the ME Law team. brii zoo2025-01-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience working with ME Law. The senior counsel was very competent and professional in our interactions and the handling of my case. I felt very supported and safe working with everyone at the firm and the outcome was exceptional. I would recommend anyone with a civil case to give ME law a call. Brittany Rose Imran Latif2024-01-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We contacted melaw yesterday to advise us on responding to a Contractor’s lawyer threatening legal action. Even though melaw’s lawyers’ schedule was full, the staff realized the immediacy of our request and constantly followed up so that they were able to squeeze us in for 5 minutes between meetings and advise us on our issue. We would highly recommend melaw to anyone looking for legal advice and representation.
