The Women in Wills group gathered in Manchester for the second Regional Lunch of the year

Paige Gouldthorpe, Chair of Women in Wills was pleased to welcome new and returning members to our second regional lunch of the year. We are excited that our community is growing so quickly across the UK. Delegates had the opportunity to network with others in the room before sitting down for a tapas feast!

The group later heard from guest speaker, Stephanie Kerr – Partner at Irwin Mitchell about ‘When Beneficiaries Can’t Agree’. Steph discussed a recent case where the three parties could not agree on the rightful ownership of items within an estate and the lengths they went to resolve the dispute. The presentation was eye-opening and started a fantastic debate on Court Ordered Mediation.

If you would like to discuss this topic further with Steph, please contact her at: stephanie.kerr@irwinmitchell.com
