Matthew Fletcher, 9th September, 2025

Gosschalks is proud to celebrate the recognition of Ben Marsden, Partner in our Litigation team, who has been named an "Up and Coming" lawyer in the 2025 Chambers High Net Worth Guide for Private Wealth Disputes in the North East & Yorkshire.

Ben’s ranking reflects his growing reputation in the field of contentious probate, trusts, and estate litigation. Chambers and Partners highlights his expertise in handling complex disputes, noting his ability to navigate emotionally charged and high-stakes situations with both strategic insight and genuine empathy. Clients and peers alike have praised Ben for his kind and patient approach, while also recognising his tenacity and strength in difficult cases:

“Ben has a kind and patient way about him, but he is a strong force and will not give up, which gives him a real edge in very difficult situations.”

“I find Ben very knowledgeable and thoughtful in how to approach a situation and how it could play out. He is also very approachable.”

“Ben Marsden is superb. His care and consideration is exemplary. He is always willing to answer any questions I may have either by email or over the phone.”

Having joined the firm in 2019, Ben has since built a strong practice representing clients in commercial litigation, inheritance disputes, and estate recovery claims. His work includes high-profile cases such as Bird & Montgomery v Lantern Recovery LLP & Others, where he successfully secured over £3.1 million for his clients following findings of forgery and undue influence in the High Court.

At Gosschalks, Ben is known not only for his legal acumen but also for his down-to-earth, pragmatic attitude and commitment to achieving the best outcomes for his clients. His recognition in Chambers is a testament to his dedication, skill, and growing influence in the private wealth disputes arena.

We’re excited to see Ben’s continued rise and proud to have him as part of our team.
