Trust & Estates Litigation - (Sept 2011)

Exploring the latest legal developments in trust and estates litigation to avoid challenges and enforce decisions

Introduction

The law on trusts and estates is continuing to evolve and expand. In addition to a dramatic growth in case law, protecting, tracing and recovering trust assets is becoming increasingly complex. The changing legal landscape will have a crucial impact upon the creation of trusts, the powers and duties of trustees and mechanisms for controlling the trust.

Now in its fourth year, Butterworths’ Trust & Estates Litigation conference will provide a comprehensive insight into the most recent developments onshore and offshore, including the overhaul of Hastings-Bass and the implications of the Granatino v Radmacher decision for cross-border trusts.

Chaired by Ziva Robertson of Withers LLP, our multi-disciplinary panel of speakers will guide you through the complex aspects of trust and estates litigation, to ensure you can mitigate risk and enforce decisions.
