Trusts, estates and succession are the key components of traditional Chancery law work, and an area which has seen rapid growth in recent years in sync with the growing awareness and focus on family wealth management and succession planning. Many cases are high-stakes and involve complex, technical and novel legal issues that require the most astute and creative legal minds to resolve.
