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.

Leanne Parkinson

Tagged solicitor Leanne Parkinson

I met Leanne recently regarding my LPA and she was absolutely brilliant. Leanne made me feel instantly at ease and explained the process very clearly. When I encountered a small issue she persisted until it was resolved and I can’t thank her enough. As a long standing client of Hartlaw LLP I would definitely recommend.

Lucy McKenna

Tagged solicitor Lucy McKenna

Lucy was extremely professional and used great communication throughout my time with her working on my case. She was always ready to listen and took on board all of my decisions with great care. The service was quick and I was always informed if every step and actions taken. I can't recommend her highly enough and when would be my first port of call, if I needed her devices again. A pleasure working with her and her company through a very difficult time.
