The trust (inter vivos or testamentary) is in place, and now the challenging work begins: advising the key players.
This program will provide a deep dive into the many issues that can arise when advising trustees (prospective or acting) on their duties and the proper exercise of their powers. It will consider how best to advise beneficiaries who may be facing challenges in dealing with the trustees or family law claims against their interest in the trust property. The complexities of charitable giving in trust planning will be explored and, of course, an always necessary update on tax matters.
Law Society of BC CPD Hours: 6 hours (this course will contain a minimum of 1 hour pertaining to professional responsibility and ethics, client care and relations, and/or practice management)
