The Vicca Law Podcast

Season 3 Episode 20: Solemn Form Proceedings

In this episode, Lidia Vicca explains solemn form proceedings and what actually happens when the validity of a will is challenged in Queensland.

Lidia explores the legal burden placed on executors to prove a will is valid, the evidence courts rely on in capacity disputes, and why these proceedings are often far more complex—and expensive—than people expect.

The episode also discusses the realities of family conflict in estate disputes, the role of medical evidence, and why suspicion alone is rarely enough to overturn a will.
