Spring Briefing 2017: ''Where there's a Will'' - Sheringham
Contentious probate is on the rise, with the number of Will disputes now at record levels. All too commonly, people find themselves embroiled in a family war over the contents of a loved one’s Will.
Furthermore, with our growing elderly population and approximately 850,000 people diagnosed with dementia in the UK, increasing numbers of elderly people are vulnerable to financial abuse.
Clapham & Collinge will examine many of the issues surrounding Wills, Probate and the administration of estates, and how and by whom they can be challenged. This briefing will highlight several of the most common difficulties we encounter when acting for our clients, and what we have learned about in the legal and regular press, including:
- An update on recent developments and the most newsworthy cases
- Abuse of the elderly: common signs, how to identify them and what to do when they are spotted
- Forward planning: how to minimise potential issues occurring
- How we can assist in the event of a challenge, using case studies as illustrations
This legal briefing is designed to be of value and relevant to businesses and individuals as well as other professional advisers such as Accountants and Financial Advisers. They are free to attend and light refreshments will be available at each venue.
