Collas Crill‘s private client team represents both trustees and HNWIs in matters tied to the restructuring or relocation of trusts, and mistake applications brought before the Royal Court. The team additionally provides day-to-day support on the management of trusts and assets held therein. January 2024 saw the firm merge with Ward Yates, bringing on highly experienced trusts practitioner Victoria Yates as head of non-contentious trusts. Yates advises on the creation of family unit trusts and limited partnerships, in addition to estate planning. Damian James takes the lead on contentious matters, where the arrival of James Sheedy in January 2024 strengthens the firm’s litigious capacity. Sheedy takes on a broad spectrum of trust disputes, including breach of trust and removal of trustee cases.
