‘The contentious trusts and probate team at Wedlake Bell is a well-oiled machine and rightly commands the respect of the market.’
‘Andrew O'Keeffe runs the shop with aplomb as the managing partner of the team. He's very happy to get his hands dirty, especially with negotiation, but delegates appropriately to his talented team of associates.'
'I remain particularly impressed with Thomas Klemme, who is developing into a brilliant lawyer. He is one to watch.’
‘The contentious trusts and probate team at Wedlake Bell is second-to-none. The quality of all members of the team, from junior solicitors to partners, is exceptionally good and enables the involvement of partners, senior associates and more junior members to be kept at just the right level.'
'The team members' technical legal knowledge is excellent, and so is their commercial and financial acumen. They handle good-quality, high-value cases and they get good results.’
‘Caroline Miller is a first-class trusts and estates lawyer who is at the top of her game. She has a huge amount of experience, excellent judgement and a great sense of litigation tactics combined with her knowledge and experience of the technical and practical aspects of tax, trusts and estates law.'
‘This is a very well-known team for private client disputes; having a very well-known private client team means they are often involved in substantial disputes. Andrew O'Keeffe is a realist who sees early on how things will go.’
‘Andrew O'Keeffe is my standout figure within the disputed trusts and estates side of the firm. A relentless opponent, reasoned and thorough tactician and litigator. He is a shrewd operator who I rate very highly.’
