What are the reasons for challenging a will?

The most common reasons for challenging a will include first, if the original will is unable to be found when the deceased person passes, it will be presumed that the will was destroyed. Next, a will can be challenged if it was not signed in accordance with state law, meaning that it was not signed with the correct number of witnesses. Third, the will can be challenged if the person who made the will lacked the necessary mental capacity to sign the will at the time it was executed. Finally, a will can be questioned if it is the result of coercion, pressure, or improper influence.
