Contesting Aunts Will

Summary

Contesting a will in Virginia requires substantial evidence. Being a blood relative doesnt automatically entitle you to an inheritance. You need to prove undue influence, lack of testamentary capacity, or improper execution. Birth certificates and witness testimonies can support your claim, but more substantial proof may be needed. If the decedent had no intention to leave you an inheritance, it can be challenging to contest the will. Seek legal assistance from a local attorney.
