📅 Thursday 28th November 2024 ⏰ 1pm - 2.30pm 💻 Live webinar
Join Helen Forster, a leading trainer and specialist in Wills, Probate, and Estate Administration, as she shares her expert views on current and emerging good practice to avoid contentious probate. This webinar, designed for personal development, offers invaluable guidance on navigating these increasingly complex areas of law, helping practitioners safeguard their clients’ interests and minimise the risk of disputes.
A recent survey by the Law Society, of England and Wales revealed that 1 in 4 estates are now contested in one form or another; be it from challenges in Wills, to claims against the estate under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependents) Act 1975.
In light of this, it is crucial for practitioners to protect both themselves and their clients by ensuring that estates are administered according to the testator's wishes. Failing to provide the right advice can lead to claims against your firm from disappointed beneficiaries or executors.

The most common challenges to Wills
Larke v Nugus requests and what they mean for your firm
