    If anybody comes to this thread in the future and you have a similar sort of issue - please don't give up, or be deflected from fighting your side.

    The other side have accepted the points I raised in this case and a negotiated settlement has been made.

    Interesting. So you've persuaded the main beneficiary (not a court) to offer a settlement. Are they creating a Deed of Variation to give you a share?
    But the will is still going to be used to obtain a grant of probate? Otherwise you would get everything through rules of intestacy.

    Sorry just seen this. Yes Deed of Variation is agreed and signed.
    Probate has not been granted yet, but it has been sought and prior to the deed of variation.
