About the Webinar

Property disputes can entangle more than the divorcing couple. Parents who have lent money to a child who is now facing divorce may end up being exposed. This session looks at ways in which you can protect third parties in circumstances where they are assisting their child. The court has the power to make orders in relation to third parties but there may be things you can do now to protect your clients’ interests. This session covers:

  • Gift vs loan – understanding the difference in property disputes
  • Mortgage documents and registering a proper interest – getting the documents in order
  • Making sure the spouse understands the arrangement – the benefits of transparency
  • When can the court exercise its accrued jurisdiction? Contractual, partnership and shareholder disputes
  • Orders under the Family Law Act to alter the rights, liabilities or property interests of third parties affected by the dispute – when will they be made?
