Managing complex and sensitive disputes through to resolution
Disputes within high net worth families are increasingly common, whether it be following a divorce or the death of a family member. These disputes focus on the value of assets, competing claims, issues relating to executors and conflict between beneficiaries that can be messy and emotionally charged. They can also prove financially devastating, particularly where assets have been hidden or misappropriated.
Such disputes create a need for experienced independent advisers to manage and protect the estate or assets, and support those involved.
