Richard Manyon
Spear’s Review
A contentious trusts and estate specialist, Payne Hicks Beach’s Richard Manyon has argued trusts, property and civil disputes before all levels of the judiciary, including the Supreme Court. He has also been involved in high-value disputes in overseas jurisdictions, including Gibraltar, the Bahamas, Bermuda, the British Virgin Islands, the United States, Jersey and Guernsey.
His cases have included acting in applications for the removal of trustees, protectors and executors; cross-border litigation alleging breach of trust or fiduciary duty by trustees or protectors; and representing HNWs in estate litigation (typically concerning challenges to the validity of wills). He also deals with high-value commercial disputes, such as breach of contract actions, misrepresentation and negligence by solicitors and other advisers.
