The litigation group at Tees Law has built up a strong presence in contentious trusts and probate work, having developed a deep bench of specialist practitioners. Legal director Polly Kerr, who works from both Royston and Cambridge, oversees the core team in Cambridge, in which vastly experienced senior associate Sara Stabler is the standout practitioner. She is ably supported by senior associate Angela Togher, who joined from Sebastians Solicitors in late 2023. Stabler, who is 'very able, practical, and pleasant to work with', has Higher Rights and is a member of ACTAPS.

Highlight-Mandate
- Advised on reaching a settlement in a matter where the deceased, his widow and the executor had passed away. Following the death of the executor, their solicitors practice closed. Instructed to reach settlement as balance to be distributed to beneficiaries was less than perceived value of the estate.
- Advising in a matter where a child had received a life gift of property interest to the exclusion of three siblings. Instructed to act to determine the interest held by the child and the basis for it (did it reflect a financial contribution to property) and, if so, what interest (15% or 30%). The matter was further complicated as the executors were also beneficiaries and kept altering their position.
- Children of deceased inherited interest in farm land that impacted on commercial relations and relations between partners. A greater interest in farm assets altered negotiating positions.
