Sinclair Gibson’s Contentious Trusts & Probate team, led by Henry Hickman with support from Partners Amy Williams and Lucy Gibson, has been promoted to Tier 2 in The Legal 500 2027.
The team advises professionals, landed families, entrepreneurs on a wide range of contentious trust and probate matters, including family business disputes, Court of Protection matters and cross-border litigation. The Legal 500 also highlights the team's involvement in significant private wealth disputes.
The guide highlights the strength of the team's individuals:
“Amy Williams is excellent with clients: empathetic and clear. She also has a very good feel for strategic decisions. Henry Hickman is a class act - he has extremely good knowledge of the areas in which he practices and is very focused on what is necessary for the client in a case.”
The ranking is also supported by strong client feedback:
“They are our "go-to" London team. They are responsive and extremely commercial in their approach. They know the Privy Council Rules and practice inside out. They also work in an extremely cost-effective manner.”
We are grateful to our clients, referrers, and professional contacts for their continued support, and to our team whose hard work and commitment have made this recognition possible. We look forward to continuing to advise clients on the most complex trust and estate disputes, both in the UK and internationally.
"Sinclair Gibson’s team has the self-belief and the ability to make the bold, difficult advisory decisions others would shy away from. It has a very good team culture, work ethic and consistent delivery."
