(That is all correct legal jargon, but basically: if you’ve been left out of a Will, or believe that a Will does not provide fairly for you, then I can assess your circumstances and advise whether you have a valid claim. If so, I will prepare your case with the assistance of an expert barrister, to make sure you get the best possible outcome).
