Focus: Landed estates disputes
“A significant number of familial conflicts arise from the transfer of an estate to the next generation, he tells Spear’s. ‘It’s any number of disputes which arise in the context of running a modern estate,’ he says, adding that the transfer ‘tends to be quite a moment of friction, because landed estates are held for families in a trust structure or similar’.”
