How long do you have to probate a Will in Ontario?

and who is able to probate?… a recent uncle died (no kids or spouse) and he left 80% to a stranger and left my mother 5%… can I contest as a niece?

1. Is there a reason why you are asking for answers from strangers on the Internet rather than a licensed attorney in your province?
2. Where there's a will, there is a lawsuit.
3. I believe that you will need to prove that your uncle was incompetent or someone used undue influence on him.
4. Most attorneys will give you a brief, free consultation to advise you if you have a case.
4a. You will need to prove that you ahve standing, that is, a legal interest in the case, in order to file.
5. If any of us here are wrong, you cannot sue the Internet.
