East Anglia > Real estate > Property litigation
Ashtons Legal is ‘professional, efficient, capable and communicative‘, and handles a broad range of issues concerning restrictive covenants, easements, and adverse possession claims. Head of disputes Tom Bailey in Norwich oversees the work of the property litigation practice, in which Cambridge’s Kirsteen Durrant is the key practitioner after the departure of former practice head Nigel Maguire to Roythornes Solicitors. The ‘absolutely outstanding‘ Durrant, who joined from Spencer West LLP, is a trained mediator with vast expertise in commercial lease disputes, breaches of covenants, and rights of first refusal. Senior associate Annabel Mayer in Bury St Edmunds also plays a key role in the practice.
East Anglia > Private client > Contentious trusts and probate
The contentious trusts and probate group at Ashtons Legal is noted as being ‘able to cut through the knotty issues and work collaboratively to reach desirable end goals‘. Partner and ACTAPS member Polly Stephenson and senior associate Katie Emerson, both based in Ipswich, combine ‘big legal brains with commercial pragmatism and huge amounts of emotional sensitivity‘. Stephenson recently defended a client individual in a £250,000 claim brought by her former partner. Litigation partner Annabel Mayer in Bury St Edmunds and ‘responsive, efficient and practical‘ Ipswich-based legal executive Joanna Baker are also highly recommended.
East Anglia > Dispute resolution > Commercial litigation: elsewhere in East Anglia
(Next Generation Partners)Ashtons Legal has a strong litigation practice across the region; the team is based largely in Cambridge and Norwich, which is where national dispute resolution head Tom Bailey is based, though the firm’s Bury St Edmunds office is home to practitioner Annabel Mayer. Mayer’s practice encompasses commercial litigation and breach of contract claims, as well as residential and commercial landlord and tenant disputes, and complex debt recovery and enforcement. Mayer is also well-versed in handling regulatory and healthcare matters.
