Top 10 of 3,713 law firms for Contentious Trusts, Wills, Trusts & Probate

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Contentious trusts covers disputes over the creation, interpretation and administration of trusts, including challenges to trustees’ powers, breaches of trust, removal or replacement of trustees, and disputes around executries and claims by or against beneficiaries. A solicitor in this area handles court applications, drafting or responding to pleadings, negotiating settlements, and advising on remedies such as directions, remedial schemes, or vesting orders. Proceedings often involve the High Court in England and may extend to insolvency or professional negligence considerations if trustees’ duties are implicated.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

Trust disputes can crystallise where trustees fail to act in the interests of beneficiaries or exceed their powers, risking breaches of trust and potentially personal liability. A solicitor provides professional accountability, handles regulated conduct of litigation, advises on remedies and settlements, and, if needed, coordinates with professional indemnity insurers and regulatory frameworks to protect the client’s position.

I had put off writing a will for years and just didn’t get round to it. Once Maggie’s started the Will Writing service, I was really pleased to take part and I got just the encouragement I needed to make the appointment- as I knew my donation would go to help Maggie’s Manchester! The solicitor, Tasnim Khalid was wonderful and made me feel very relaxed, she made the whole experience straightforward and just made sure I hadn’t missed anything out. It took about 40 minutes and afterwards I immediately felt a great weight had been lifted off my shoulders, and I could forget about it, knowing that everything was now arranged as I wanted. I also wanted to support Maggie’s Manchester because they offer an amazing support service to everyone affected by cancer. It was a bonus being able to see the solicitor at Maggie’s in the beautiful centre here.

Ellie Colbourne

Tagged solicitor Ellie Colbourne

I was very impressed with the professional and efficiency I received from Ellie Colbourne starting from my initial telephone call enquiry about amending my Will through to the final meeting to sign my amended Will. I would certainly recommend Howard & Over to someone else.

Alison Courtenay

Tagged solicitor Alison Courtenay

Alison Courtenay was very professional, approachable & knowledgeable & put us at ease. We even managed to have a few laughs, even though this was a serious & sensitive matter of finalising our Wills.
