Course description

Property disputes are increasingly common, partly because of the complex family configurations caused by divorce and remarriage.

As property ownership can sometimes require investment by different members of a family, it is important you fully consider the possible risks when advising your clients, especially in relation to estate administration.

Miranda Allardice presents this concise and informative webinar which will address some of the many difficulties encountered on death where the ownership of property is disputed, with a thorough review of recent cases.

It will also include a case study which will be used to demonstrate the potential remedies and routes to settlement.
