I am excited to say that I have signed on the dotted line to join the brilliant team of contributors to the Red Book published by @LexisNexis. I will be picking up commentary on the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975.
I've written a piece on the subject of generative AI and legal practice for the summer edition of the Financial Remedies Journal. Anticipating that the landscape will change between now and going to print in July, the article is available online now financialremediesjournal.com/content/are-yo…
Gatehouse's private client team is greatly looking forward to the ConTrA Trusts in Litigation Conference in Venice. Hope to see some of you there @BrieWhatC @LottieJohn1 @CameronStocks_
Hudson v Hathway is a need to know decision for those advising clients about trusts of the family home, confirming that detrimental reliance is required and that an interest can be relinquished by email. Blog post all about it here equitysdarling.co.uk/2023/03/15/det…
Thread 👇
Interesting decision reported here in which the Ontario CA declined to deal with the issue of whether a will was valid in the lifetime of the Tx (who possessed capacity) on grounds of alleged undue influence, concluding such challenges must wait until death.
As a couple of people have asked, link to purchase, should you be so inclined: classlegal.com/books/dictiona…
Always pleasing to see the end result in the flesh! Really impressed with just how much content we have managed to pack into a handily slimline and affordable volume, that tackles procedure as well as substantive law.
Blog post produced by my human brain, available here. It may be fallible and ageing but it is at least (for now) more reliable than Bing. equitysdarling.co.uk/2023/03/12/whe…
Curious about whether or not AI is going to replace the wetware lawyers anytime soon, I asked Bing to summarise the judgment in Naidoo v Barton, having given it the link to the judgment. It did a hopeless job, inventing the facts.
Looking forward to speaking at this CPD event with @Penningtonslaw I believe that there are a handful of spaces still available, which are open to all. Sign up link here: forms.office.com/pages/response…
In this episode, @BrieQC and I discuss trusts of land disputes with Simon and Anita. Aimed at family lawyers, but of interest to anyone wanting a practically focused refresher. Check out the show notes for our crib sheet for taking instructions at resolution.org.uk/podcast/
In @ResFamilyLaw's latest podcast, @BrieQC and @LottieJohn1 talk about the intersection between civil and family proceedings. Click here to listen: bit.ly/3M1qQTh #TOLATA #CPR @GatehousePC
However, Law Society research found that only 14% of legal professionals involved in will-making had used virtual software for witnessing wills.
Yesterday, @MoJGovUK announced an extension to the measures allowing the remote witnessing of wills until 31 January 2024 for those forced to isolate from Covid or another vulnerability. gov.uk/government/new…
This appears to be a secret trust case. Property left in will to aunt allegedly on a secret trust for daughter to keep her ex husband from claiming a share.
Student sues her aunt over £600k house that was left in her mum's will express.co.uk/news/uk/153274…
Important news here. An extension of the remote witnessing provisions is looking very likely as I understand it. The Law Society are seeking input from their members.
I’ve used video witnessing of #wills as both lifestyle choice and out of necessity with clients. @MoJGovUK considering extending this beyond Jan 2022. @TheLawSociety want practitioners views & experiences via short survey (closes 15/11). lawsociety.org.uk/topics/private…
The Mentoring Scheme being run by 10 commercial sets including Gatehouse Chambers and which is aimed at underrepresented groups at the Bar has now offered places to almost 200 applicants. You can find out more details about this excellent scheme here: bit.ly/3knS4J7
