Yes, Any Will Can Be Challenged: Regardless of being a Notarial Will or a Will with witnesses (Willful's $99 plan), any will can be challenged. Challenges can arise for various reasons:
- Lack of capacity
- Undue influence
- Clauses violating public order
Likelihood of Successful Challenges
Low Probability: Although wills can be challenged, the chances of a successful challenge are very low due to the comprehensive process involved in creating a will.
Notarial Wills and Their Strength
Notarial Will Evaluation: Notaries evaluate the testator's understanding and consistency with their wishes. The process of executing a Notarial Will offers strong protection against successful challenges.
Limitations: Having a Notarial Will does not prevent challenges and does not guarantee it will withstand a legitimate challenge.
Update on Willful's Plans
Current Offering: Willful's Notarial will plan is no longer available due to legislation changes in Quebec. As of 2024, residents of Quebec can purchase Willful's will-among-witnesses will plan with unlimited updates for $99.
