It is estimated that approximately 1% to 3% of wills are contested in court. While this percentage is relatively low compared to the total number of wills created, it still represents a significant number of cases each year.
Contesting a will typically involves disputes over the validity of the document, claims of undue influence, lack of testamentary capacity, or issues with how the will was executed. Despite the low percentage, contested wills can result in lengthy and costly legal battles for the parties involved.
