Contested Wills, Trusts & Estates

In recent years there has been a steady increase in disputes involving Wills, Trusts and Estates. There are three main factors that have driven this increase:

Longer life expectancy means more people are experiencing a decline in their mental faculties in their later years and are more vulnerable to third party influence
Increases in asset values, particularly land, mean there is more incentive to challenge arrangements involving inheritances
The way family structures have changed means that there are more competing interests for individuals to take into account when deciding how to divide their assets

James radiated a feeling of total professionalism and is the epitome of a compassionate and effective solicitor. I was vulnerable emotionally and financially and James was able to efficiently deal with my matter, whilst showing a great deal of empathy towards my personal situation. I cannot endorse him at a higher level.
