Boca Raton Will Contest Trial Postponed —- for now

post about Boca Raton Will Contest Trial Postponed —- for now

A 2 day will contest trial set for May 19 and 20th in the Delray Beach Probate Court has been postponed.  Heirs were attacking a will of a wealthy woman from Boca Raton who left all her money to charity.  I pushed the will challenge case to trial, and survived three attempts by other probate lawyers in Delray Beach Probate Court to delay…..until the last one.

Can You Delay a Trial on a Will Contest?

  • A lot of Palm Beach probate lawyers may trial to stall…. to delay a will challenge case
  • You can set the will challenge for trial if the case is “at issue”
  • That’s what I did in this Boca Raton estate
  • Other probate lawyers, from Palm Beach Gardens and Miami, tried to postpone, to delay, to get away from trying the case — not us
  • I fought them off until a later dated will was found

Postponement of Will Challenge Trial:  Delray Beach Estate Case

  • The other probate lawyers were successful in delaying the trial….. for now
  • I intend to have the matter re-set for trial
  • The heirs alledged that the wealthy woman from Boca Raton did not have a valid Florida will based upon insane delusion and lack of testamentary capacity
  • A probate court judge in Palm Beach County may postpone a trial in his or her absolute discretion, or if the interests of justice are served

Our West Palm Beach probate litigation firm looks forward to trying this case.
