Cell Tower Records Thwart Will Contest

After the decedent died and a will was offered for probate, a family member came forward with an alleged newer will which left her a large portion of the decedent’s estate.

The family member swore under oath that she and the decedent went two times to the attorney’s office to work on the new will.

However, cell tower location data proved that neither the decedent nor the family member had ever visited the attorney’s office.
