Disputes over the ownership of property

Inheritance & Will Disputes

Inherited property disputes

Do you think you might have a claim to a property or asset which has been left to somebody else in a Will which the deceased promised to you?

Or did you put money towards a property or another asset owned by the deceased that has now been left to somebody else?

Proprietary Estoppel / Constructive Trust Claims

Commonly in these sorts of claims (what we call Proprietary Estoppel / Constructive Trust Claims) the promise or contribution has not been recorded in writing.

We have many years experience of dealing with these types of highly specialised claims and we can help you bring or defend such a claim when the ownership of property is involved.

We provide a national service to private clients via our offices in London, Watford, Bristol and Birmingham. For clients based in North Bristol, we also have a dedicated office at 106 Henleaze Road.


For specialist legal advice on inherited property disputes, please contact Michelle Rose on 0117 314 5246.
