We are recommended solicitors for contesting Wills, and dealing with contentious probate and trusts disputes in the UK following our inclusion in the latest edition of the Legal 500.

The Legal 500 is an internationally respected guide to the legal profession. It highlights the practice areas where lawyers are providing the most cutting edge and innovative advice. The Legal 500 is compiled by independent researchers who have unrivalled experience in the legal sector, and the rankings are based on feedback from more than 300,000 individuals. Every firm that is ranked and every lawyer who is mentioned in the UK Legal 500 Solicitors guide is ‘recommended’.

Furthermore, entry into the prestigious publication is based purely on merit. Lawyers cannot buy their way in.

The guide says that our team of contentious probate lawyers are, ‘thoroughly knowledgeable, stand for no nonsense, and do their absolute best for their client.’ It also says that we are well placed to advise clients on a range of disputes, including Court of Protection cases and TOLATA (Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996) claims.

The Legal 500 praises team leader Naomi Ireson who, according to one testimonial is, ‘simply perfect’, and stands out as ‘efficient and helpful.’

Contentious probate partner Hayley Bundey is also featured in the guide. She is described as ‘excellent‘, and a ‘prolific adviser on contentious probate work‘.

A summary of the team’s Work Highlights is included and incorporates three cases that we won at trial over the course of the previous year.

So, if you are looking for recommended solicitors for contesting a Will, then contact our helpline for a free consultation and case review. We will also be happy to provide details of the funding options available, including deferred fees (pay at the end), and No Win, No Fee.

Client Testimonials

“Executor dispute and contentious Will mediation”

I was in a difficult position with a co-executor that left the estate idle and Slee Blackwell were excellent in navigating a resolution to achieve the appointment of an independent PR. In addition my father’s Will was being challenged by one of the beneficiaries against the largest recipient of the estate and Naomi Ireson was very solid in her advice and helped to arrange a successful mediation. Naomi was ably assisted by Sharnie Jenkins in this matter. “Executor dispute and contentious Will mediation”

“Expertise and Understanding”

I was tentative about making enquiries from Australia with a UK group of solicitors, Slee Blackwell, about a claim on a deceased estate there as an ex-spouse. Right from the get go I was treated with respect and expert advice with Kristi. Anya was instrumental in guiding me through the whole process and I was very impressed with her expertise and obvious knowledge of the situation. If I lived in the UK I wouldn’t hesitate to use this firm again. Thank you to Anya and her team. “Expertise and Understanding”

“Positive experience”

I contacted Kristi regarding an inheritance matter and she was swift to respond and the issue, which has been ongoing for three years now, was immediately resolved. I highly recommend. “Positive experience”

“Challenge to the validity of a will”

Unfortunately, I had to defend a challenge to the validity of my fathers will. Naomi Ireson, with the help of Sharnie Jenkins and the rest of the team were absolutely amazing. It was such a stressful time but Naomi had my back through it all, and pursued the case relentlessly. Her expertise and competence in her field is exemplary and I never once believed that there would be a problem. The team kept me informed at all times and were always easy to talk to. I would recommend them in a heartbeat. “Challenge to the validity of a will”

“Defending a claim made against Estate”

After receiving a claim against my late fathers estate, I was left feeling extremely anxious and frustrated. Chris was amazing, his knowledge and professionalism was impeccable. I immediately felt in safe hands and I received a prompt response to any queries I had. Sharnie was also amazing throughout the experience. I was so impressed with the service that I used Slee Blackwell for an eviction and conveyancing. I received outstanding service again. Thank you so much for relieving my stress, that is truly priceless! “Defending a claim made against Estate”

“Contentious Probate – Establishing Paternity”

The brother of my grandfather died without children, and after a dispute with my family who said that I was not the son of my father, I read a very professional article written by Naomi Ireson that was very informative. I saw that I could ask some questions and her answer really helped. I later hired her and she resolved the accusation of my family. She is also very organized and is doing only what is necessary. Thank you for your work and to all the members of your team. “Contentious Probate – Establishing Paternity”

“Dispute – Breach of Trust”

I can’t express enough gratitude to Chris for his outstanding service over the past year. My case was especially challenging, but Chris handled it with compassion and the highest level of professionalism. The outcome was fantastic, and it wouldn’t have been possible without Chris’s expert advice and support. I would strongly recommend his services to anyone who is going through a difficult will dispute. Many thanks again Chris! “Dispute – Breach of Trust”
