Oliver Hilton

Call: 2002

Barrister

Praised for being “technically superb” and “a great team player”, Oliver enjoys a successful private client practice with a focus on high value, complex trust, estates and pensions litigation. He has developed well-regarded specialisms in trusts and beneficiary disputes, contentious probate, 1975 Act claims and proprietary disputes, pensions litigation and related professional negligence and tax matters. He is particularly adept at dealing with highly technical points and procedural issues, as well as litigation involving multiple causes of action and parties. Oliver appears regularly in the High Court and has acted on numerous occasions in matters before the Court of Appeal. He is especially sought after for his substantial mediation experience, for which he has a high success rate at achieving favourable, tax efficient settlements. His specialisms compliment his wealth of experience in drafting complex and intricate trusts and pensions documentation.

"The attention to detail with Oliver is second to none. He is very meticulous and organised. He always delivers when he says he will."
