Noted for its ‘strength in depth’, B P Collins LLP's broad offering in Gerrards Cross assists clients with interpretation of testamentary documents, removal of trustees, and breach of trust claims. Exemplifying this in particular is Craig Williams, who heads the practice and specialises in will validity litigation, Inheritance Act 1975 claims, and administration disputes regarding trusts and estates. Described by clients as ’a future star’, Imogen Pike is well-known for her distinctive focus on undue influence matters, and Matthew Brandis is an experienced mediator.
