A leading firm based in Surrey has an exciting opening for an experienced private wealth disputes lawyer to join their Tier 1 ranked team. Our client is financially robust, well respected and progressively minded.

The firm's successful Private Wealth Disputes team advises clients on a broad range of matters including:
- All types of inheritance disputes
- Applications contesting the validity of wills
- Applications to remove Executors
