In Ireland, you can challenge a will on various grounds, including:

Step 1: Lack of capacity: The deceased must have understood what they were doing when making the will.
Step 2: Undue influence: If the deceased was pressured into making a will, this can be grounds for contesting it.
Step 3: Failure to provide for family: If you are a dependent and have been excluded from the will, you may challenge it under the Succession Act 1965.
Consult a solicitor who specializes in probate law to discuss your options and proceed with the challenge.
