Disputes that arise on the death of a relative are often fraught and complex, arising at a time when emotions run high. We are one of the few firms in Wales with the necessary expertise to deal with such disputes, having an established reputation in this difficult area of work.

When a person dies leaving assets behind there is always the potential for a dispute to arise even if they left a Will. This is known as contentious probate.

Consultant solicitor Neil Jacobi and associate solicitor Richard Howells are members of ACTAPS (Association of Contentious Trusts and Probate Specialists) Both work from the three JCP offices in Swansea, Whitland and Fishguard.

Whether you are a claimant, trustee, beneficiary or personal representative and no matter what the circumstances our Contentious Probate Team has the professional expertise to guide you through the dispute resolution process.
 

From claims dealing with the rightful ownership of property, the negligent drafting of wills, disputes between personal representatives and claims challenging the validity of wills to applications to the Court of Protection, you can be safe in the knowledge that your case is being dealt with by a team with many years specialist litigation experience.

We will do all we can to try and achieve the right outcome for you. Whilst it is not always possible, we will try to reach a settlement without the need for court proceedings, attempting to preserve the family relationship. However if a resolution cannot be reached without court proceedings, you can be safe in the knowledge that your team are the experts that you can rely on.
