The set is home to a team with established expertise in advising on, among other areas, contentious probate, tax and trusts matters. Angus Burden 'conveys very complex and difficult legal arguments with ease', and recently handled a case involving a challenge to the validity of a will on the grounds that the testator had lacked capacity. Louise Corfield is well known for her experience in assisting with Inheritance Act matters, which are also a key area of strength for rising star Annie Townley.
