Spear's Review
‘I specialise in trust and estate litigation for HNW and UHNW individuals and families, often involving complex capacity issues,’ says Nicola Bushby, a London-based partner in Irwin Mitchell’s will, trust and estate disputes team.
Bushby frequently advises HNWs on claims for breach of trust, inter-family disputes relating to estates and trusts and will disputes (including challenges on grounds of mental incapacity and undue influence). Given the international nature of many HNW families, her cases frequently involve multiple jurisdictions and recovering money held offshore.
‘I am particularly experienced at dealing with the dynamics of family disputes and am adept at untangling the most difficult and challenging of cases,’ she tells Spear's.
Adviser Profile
Nicola specialises in private client litigation representing HNW and UHNW individuals and families across multiple jurisdictions. She has particular expertise in inter-family breach of trust disputes, estate and probate litigation, claims in respect of beneficial interests in property and setting aside transactions by reason of mental incapacity and undue influence. Her clients include trustees, beneficiaries, partners, lay attorneys and professional deputies.
Nicola has huge strength in complex capacity issues including around the estates and businesses of those who may have lost capacity to manage them as well as financial abuse. She is very experienced at dealing with the complicated dynamics of family disputes.
