THE PROGRAM
Session 1: A Match Made in Heaven? Remote Witnessing, Execution and Electronic Wills
Our annual 2-day wills and estates conferences are among the most highly regarded professional development events we run, but we realise that not everyone can spare two days out of the office. So we’re offering you a new way to access the experts online – a half-day online conference, focused on managing estate dispute.
You can put your staff in the boardroom and watch it there. You can watch it on your computer or on your portable electronic device. All for the same low price.
Estate plans can quickly unravel when family dynamics shift, tax consequences are overlooked, or structures don’t stand up under legal scrutiny. Blended families, vulnerable beneficiaries, unpaid entitlements, and cross-border assets are just some of the factors that create hidden risks for advisers and their clients.

Yet, there are circumstances where strict adherence to the written document produces unfair outcomes. Equity steps in to correct these injustices, particularly in cases where someone has relied on promises made by the deceased to their detriment.
