In this article, our Tinley Park will litigation lawyers explain will contests in Illinois. In probate cases, wills of the deceased can be contested by heirs and beneficiaries for a number of reasons. In this article you will learn what a will contest is, the statute of limitations for will contests, who has standing to file a petition for a will contest, and in what situations a will can be contested.
Lack of testamentary capacity is an argument used when contesting the validity of a will. In order for a will to be valid, the person who created the will or trust must have had the mental capacity to understand the consequences of executing the will or trust. If someone has cause to believe that the person who created the will did not have the testamentary or mental capacity to execute a will, the will can be contested based on lack of mental capacity.
