Private Wealth Litigation and Dispute Resolution

Overview

Overview

We advise trustees and beneficiaries on complex litigious and potentially litigious issues arising in the course of the administration of trusts and foundations (both contested and non-contested).

Our approach is measured and strategic, helping clients manage risk, resolve disputes effectively and, where possible, avoid escalation.

Our expertise spans the full range of trust and foundation disputes, including requests for trust information, transfers of trusts to alternative service providers, restructurings, rectification and mistake claims, and applications under Public Trustee v Cooper. We combine technical expertise with practical judgement to achieve outcomes that are robust, defensible and aligned with fiduciary duties.
