Teece Hodgson & Ward specialists expertly advise in these matters.

“Undue influence” cases are very difficult to prove in court. For this reason, it is important that anyone considering making such a claim obtains authoritative advice from lawyers who are both truly experts in and fully familiar with this area of law.
