Free webinar | Will preparation under scrutiny: Larke v Nugus and testamentary capacity

What happens when the circumstances surrounding the preparation of a will are questioned after a client’s death?

Kings Court Trust is joined by Stephen Lawson, partner at IDR Law, for a special guest webinar exploring two important areas for will writers and estate planning professionals: Larke v Nugus requests and the assessment of testamentary capacity.

Drawing on his extensive experience in contentious probate, Stephen will explore why will preparers can still encounter difficulties when responding to Larke v Nugus requests and what these requests can reveal about the Will preparation process.

During the webinar, Stephen will discuss:

  • What a Larke v Nugus request is and why will writers might receive it
  • Common issues and mistakes when dealing with Larke v Nugus requests
  • Why good record keeping matters
  • Assessing testamentary capacity in practice
  • Plus, more

This free webinar is ideal for will writers, estate planning professionals, and anyone involved in the preparation of a will who wants to strengthen their understanding of these issues and reduce the risk of problems arising later.
