Course description

There has been a ground swell of litigation in recent years based upon the Inheritance (Provision for Family & Dependants) Act 1975.


This live broadcast session, presented by Barrister James Normington, will discuss the impact of recent cases such as Ilott v The Blue Cross, Lewis v Warner, Cowan v Foreman and Bhusate v Patel & Ors and how they have changed the way courts look at the regime for making a claim.


This is an ideal update for private client practitioners focussing specifically on the most significant cases of the last two years. This live and interactive session will cover a variety of topics, most notably the different approaches taken by judges in these important cases, and the impact these cases can have on your approach to litigation under the Inheritance Act.
