Will Drafting from a Litigator's Perspective: A Workshop - Saturday 10 August 9.30-1pm Wrest Point Hotel
CPD: 3 points (PM, PS)
Format: in-person only (Wrest Point Hotel)
Recorded: No
Join Craig Birtles, Barrister, Wentworth Chambers with Kimberley Martin, Director, WWM Law, for this 3-hour workshop where they will delve into will drafting including an update on Tasmanian provisions, and the use of plain English precedents. The purpose of this workshop is to look at frameworks for the taking of instructions and drafting of a will – from the simple to the circumstances where complexity is warranted – to identify the issues that can arise, and how they should be addressed ideally without falling down too many rabbit holes.
