If a Family Provisions claim was issued against a Deceased Estate but the maximum claim would only be around 50-60K before legal costs, does anyone know if a Law Firm offering a No Win No Fee basis would be willing to take the case on?
It is my understanding that if the claim failed then the plaintiff would possibly have to pay the Estate's legal costs but not their own? Is that correct?
But if the claim was successful then the Estate would be responsible for both parties legal costs?
What if there were not enough assets/monies in the Estate to cover both the claim and legal costs without one of the beneficiaries having to sell an asset that was left to them?
