Solicitor at Willans LLP
Claire Cox
Solicitor - Partner
I have experience in a broad range of disputes, but have a particular expertise in inheritance disputes and hold the ACTAPS (Association of Contentious Trusts and Probate Solicitors) Associate Membership. These can be claims against estates, disputes between Executors/Trustees, estate administration issues and also breach of trust. In addition, I can also help you with contentious trusts outside of inheritance disputes, for example, in cases where an individual considers that they have an interest in a property not legally owned by them. I have been a litigator since 2009 and consider myself to be pragmatic, thorough and approachable, but also tenacious. I pride myself on building strong and lasting relationships with my clients, and I place a great deal of importance upon being a personable lawyer who you can quickly place your trust in.

Legal Advice on potential inheritance dispute
I discussed our case where I suspect that matters may escalate to a legal challenge.
I am a practising Chartered Accountant with over 50 years experience and I was extremely impressed by the way that Claire understood the problem that I foresaw and the follow up advice was of the highest quality and clarity.
I have a list of London Solicitors that I recommend to my Clients and decided that I will recommend to use Claire as Solicitor

Settlement Agreement and Property Conveyancing
We have used Hedges Law for two different purposes, involving two different areas of expertise.
The first was for a Settlement Agreement and the second was for Property Conveyancing in selling an inherited Property.

Quick and empathetic response
I needed help very quickly and the firm was extremely understanding and empathetic to my situation. They arranged a call the same day to discuss the matter and then a subsequent call the next day to give me the best advice. I felt supported and reassured.

Challenging the results of my sister-in-law's will
Claire, Ella and Rachel supported me and my wife through difficult and trying circumstances. They handled the two 'opponents' whom we were challenging, with confidence and delicacy. The result we achieved was very much due to their expertise.
