St Philips Chambers stands out as 'one of the leading sets in the region with a very good offering for contentious probate matters'. John Aldis is regularly instructed in cases involving challenges to wills on grounds of alleged incapacity, undue influence, and fraud. In a recent matter, he represented the claimants in Baker v Hewston, involving a re-examination of the relationship between the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and the common law test of testamentary capacity. Christopher Buckingham’s 'advocacy is always of a high quality'. Gavin McLeod garners praise for his 'outstanding legal knowledge', and is well versed in advising on Inheritance Act claims.
