Practice Areas

Sarah qualified in 1994 and has over twenty years’ experience of managing disputes for her clients. She is well known for her firm but fair approach to the resolution of disputes.

Sarah has particular expertise in acting for individuals in inheritance and trust disputes and heads the private client litigation team in Oxford. She deals with a wide range of cases, including issues surrounding the validity of a will; claims against estates for financial provision; disputed trusts; disputes in the Court of Protection and the removal of executors and trustees.

Sarah also has many years experience of dealing with claims made against professionals including legal, construction and financial professionals. She specialises particularly in legal or financial claims with a trust or probate background. She also advises on coverage disputes between insurers and insured.

Trials/contested hearings are very much the exception rather than the rule, but when they are the only option, clients have praised Sarah for her no nonsense, efficient and diligent approach.
