This is the livestream registration page for Practice Foundations: Wills. This program is also being offered in Edmonton.

The first years of practice can be both rewarding and challenging. Lawyers with a wills and estates practice need to understand the law and its application across a variety of individual and family circumstances. Recognizing potential pitfalls, developing strategies, and ensuring that best practices are understood and implemented are keys to a successful law practice.

Building on the faculty’s extensive experience and varied perspectives as both solicitors and litigators, this program will address topics that form the foundations of practice, including:

• Ascertaining a client’s capacity to give instructions
• Conducting appropriate and thorough client intake and follow up meetings
• Common problem clauses
• Family dynamics

Program materials will include precedents and checklists.
