The ’outstanding’ Sarah Foster leads the team from Oxford, and is noted for handling multi-part and cross-jurisdictional estate and trust disputes. Sally Goodger is lauded for advising executors, independent administrators, and trustees, utilising her experience in mediation proceedings. Foster and Goodger are well supported by Charlotte Flynn , who joined the team in July 2023 from Blaser Mills Law, contributing her knowledge of financial abuse, undue influence, and administration disputes.
