Trust Disputes
All of our partners have acted in trust disputes, representing both beneficiaries and trustees in cases involving family, discretionary, and corporate employee benefit trusts.
These disputes often arise from allegations of breach of fiduciary duty, mismanagement of trust assets, conflicts of interest, and disputes over the proper construction and administration of trust instruments. Whether defending trustees against claims of improper decision-making or asserting beneficiaries’ rights to information and proper distributions, we bring strategic insight and deep experience to complex trust litigation.
Many of the trust disputes we handle involve parallel proceedings in offshore jurisdictions, requiring careful coordination between legal teams across multiple courts. We are experienced in cases involving trustee removal applications, challenges to the validity of trust structures, and conflicts arising from competing claims to trust assets.
Our expertise extends to high-value family trusts, where generational wealth planning can give rise to contentious disputes, as well as corporate trusts, including employee benefit trusts, where regulatory and tax considerations play a crucial role.
