With changes in Ontario's population demographics, the demands on Estates and Trusts practitioners is greater and more complex than ever. Whether you are sole practitioner with a varied practice or a practitioner in a firm specializing in estates and trusts law, this annual two-day program brings you the most important developments on what you want (and need) to know. Day One addresses the latest information on estates, trusts, and capacity/elder law litigation, while Day Two focuses on the estate solicitor's practice, including planning, administration, and advising attorneys and guardians.
- What should you include in your trial checklist?
- How is estate planning affected by the new budget and trust reporting rules?
- What do you need to know about motions to enforce settlements?
- What should a guardian or estate trustee do when they encounter unusual or illegal assets?
- What are the perils of joint ownership you should advise your clients about?
- When can you fund a will challenge from the estate?
