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.

Emma was absolutely brilliant support for us when we lost our mum and had to sort out her estate and probate. She helped us through each step professionally but also with understanding and empathy. A fantastic service.

Phil Turner

Tagged solicitor Phil Turner

From the moment Mr Turner took our case, we all felt confident that he would provide us with good service. This he did, right up to the case being closed. He always kept us fully informed of what was going on and how to proceed in the future. I actually met Mr Turner last year when I had to sign some documents, and we had a really good chat. A truly nice man.
