Contentious probate team expands to become one of biggest outside London
Jones Myers' expertise in the field of contentious probate has been marked by two new appointments in the last three months.
The seven-strong team—led by award-winning contentious wills, trusts & estates specialist, Martin Holdsworth—is one of the largest niche teams outside London and is commissioned by clients regionally, nationally and internationally.
The latest recruits are Ben Lyon, an associate member of ACTAPS who has amassed four years’ experience in dealing with contentious probate work, and Vincent Schumacher, a New Zealand solicitor who becomes dual qualified in 2017.
Martin says: “We have made this contentious area of law accessible to clients and referrers alike with fixed fee services and a humane approach to family disputes following the death of a loved one. We resolve matters through mediation or litigation—and always with the client’s goals at the forefront of our mind.
“Our ‘Yorkshire’ approach ensures we are frank, and we work hard to manage our client’s expectations from the outset. We also provide a number of different funding options to ensure our service is affordable for them.”
