‘The team’s approach’ at Penningtons Manches Cooper LLP ’shows an ability to think ahead and consider the underlying needs of the client’. Michael Cash leads the practice, which frequently handles cross-border cases. The group excels in attempting to resolve conflicts within a family before any litigation proceedings begin. Its client base includes high-net-worth individuals, families, trusts, and estates. Sarah Lee is a qualified mediator who handles a wide range of issues. Other areas of focus for the team span advising on contentious Court of Protection claims and financial abuse actions, as well as international and domestic trust and estate cases.

‘I have worked with multiple people in Penningtons for over a decade now. In particular, Michael Cash and Sarah Lee in multiple cases. Penningtons are an excellent firm for this area of law. Large enough to have the clout and ability to handle the largest of cases, small enough to feel personal, which is essential in this field.’
‘Michael Cash is the leading partner in the team in this field. Years of experience, widely respected, regularly appointed by the courts to handle really difficult estates and trusts, and it shows in his handling of the most difficult of clients and opponents.'
'Sarah Lee is at the top of her game right now. In particular, she deals with cross-border issues on such a regular basis that she might as well be multi-qualified. Absolutely a delight to work with or against.’
