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.

Chris Strogen

Tagged solicitor Chris Strogen

As a former Executor, and now Trustee, I had approached Chris Strogen for legal advice and guidance to assist with a complex Trust situation. All through the process Chris helped to ensure that my approach was both legal and appropriate for the circumstances, appertaining to a convoluting Trust going back 80 years. This is the second time I have employed Chris with family law matters and he has always put me at ease. I have no hesitation in recommending Chris and Evolve Family Law Ltd.
