Find trusted and tailored support to help you navigate disputes relating to deceased estates, divorce, and trust and shareholder disagreements.
Such disputes are often complex and emotionally charged. They can also be financially devastating – especially when assets have been hidden or misappropriated.
Our global team will help you make positive progress from the outset, working collaboratively with legal teams and private client advisers, to find proactive solutions to protect, secure and recover assets.
Our personalised service focuses on your individual needs to provide well-informed advice, and diverse strategies and solutions, on the best course of action.
We have extensive experience working on a variety of disputes. These include issues arising from deceased estates, conflicts between beneficiaries, family disputes, divorce and contentious trust matters.
Our capabilities include:
We collaborate seamlessly with our teams in the UK and internationally to provide expertise across several areas. These include specialisms in corporate intelligence, digital assets, digital forensics, business valuation, expert witnesses, international arbitration and enforcement and recovery. Over the last 10 years, our team have achieved USD 4.8 billion of asset recoveries across more than 65 jurisdictions.
We act as independent administrators of deceased estates in cases concerning disputes over assets, where legal claims need to be pursued or defended, or where corporate structures need to be taken control of, and assets realised. In this role we can assess the solvency of the estate and, if required, can act as administrators of insolvent deceased estates.
We can investigate, secure, protect and preserve the value of assets, and shareholdings, while wider litigation is ongoing.
We take appointments as directors for companies globally – particularly when independence or professional control is required. This helps maintain objectivity during decision making, avoid conflicts of interest, and provide requisite skills and experience from our global network.
Where the solvency of a deceased estate is uncertain, or there are enforcement issues with judgments against individuals or companies, we can use insolvency appointments. These types of appointments can unlock lookback periods and enable us to gather information, secure assets and maximise recoveries, for the benefit of creditors and beneficiaries.
