In recent years, courts in both Scotland and England have been prepared to award damages to “disappointed beneficiaries” arising from actions brought by the latter for negligence in will making. A failure to identify these difficulties or traps may lead to actions against you in future.

After attending this virtual classroom, delegates will have an understanding of:

• the present state of the law in negligence in willmaking in both Scotland and England
• how to avoid claims being made
• how to identify and deal timeously with difficult cases
• time limits in executries
• how to manage “willmaking files” and appropriate record retention
• loose practice is not necessarily negligence – where does the borderline lie?
