Peter Steer Email & Phone Number

I qualified as a solicitor in 1991 and have been specialising in disputes about Wills and Estates for over 20 years. As well as acting for private individuals I established a niche practice acting for many of the leading national UK charities on contentious cases involving often substantial bequests made to them. I began my career in London with a highly reputable litigation firm (Masons) undertaking commercial litigation before moving to Oxford where my focus moved towards professional negligence work (particularly solicitors) and advising and acting for charities. I have been ranked as a leading individual in the legal directories (Chambers UK, Band 1 for Charities). "Specialising in contentious probate matters, key partner Peter Steer receives praise for his "negotiation skills, combined with his technical knowledge and sound commercial judgement."My skills are particularly associated with sensitive but firm negotiation and an eye for detail. I act as an independent mediator in my specialist areas of expertise.

Listed skills include Legal Advice, Litigation, Trusts, Wills, and 26 others.
