Can joint tenancy be contested?
(On the grounds that it was the solicitor’s choice to use joint tenancy instead of tenants in common. No specific instruction was given based on naivety rather than anything else.)
There has since been a death and due to the sudden nature of the death no will had been made. And only now has this come to light as there is no inheritance for the child of the deceased and the property has passed to deceased’s brother based on the joint tenancy.
