#advisingthemodernbradybunch

While the Brady Bunch-type family used to be a rarity, today it’s much more commonplace. When it comes to drafting wills in this context, what issues can arise, what special considerations apply and what can go wrong? 

Presented by two experts in this area, this webinar will highlight the various issues of which will-drafters need to be aware, the considerations that apply and clauses to address them, and case law to reflect what has happened when things have gone wrong. A case study will be used to assist attendees. 

Who should watch? 

Anyone doing private client work, including general practitioners and legal executives.
