With our long and distinguished history it is perhaps unsurprising that we have much experience and expertise in dealing with testamentary disputes.
These can relate to intestacy or to matters arising in relation to the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975.
Whether actively pursuing a claim on behalf of a potential claimant or resisting a claim on behalf of other beneficiaries or trustees we are skilled at achieving an early and satisfactory conclusion, whether by court action or through negotiation.
The family team at Payne Hicks Beach is ranked in Chambers HNW 2021.
