SUMMARY:2022 Joint Wills and Estates Program: Fundamentals of Estate Planning and Will Drafting
DESCRIPTION:\n\nJointly presented by The Law Society of Manitoba and\nThe Manitoba Bar Association, Wills, Estates and Trusts Section\n\nPlanning is well underway for a two-day CPD program of interest to lawyers who practice in the area of wills and estates. Preparing wills can seem deceptively easy to new practitioners, however, an aging population and the growth of estate litigation show that preparing wills can be fraught with hidden traps. With a slate of experienced practitioners to guide you, this program is here to help!\n\n\n\nTeaching Faculty include:\n\n\nAlexander Bainov, Contrast Law\nSolange Buissé, Taylor McCaffrey LLP\nBarney Christianson, Thompson Dorfman Sweatman LLP\nTana Christianson, The Law Society of Manitoba\nKrista Clendenning, Tradition Law LLP\nAnnika Friesen, Fillmore Riley LLP\nCaroline Kiva, Thompson Dorfman Sweatman LLP\nAaron Maister, Pitblado Law LLP\nKenneth Mandzuik, Tradition Law LLP\nHarmanjit Mavi, MLT Aikins LLP\nJohn Poyser, Tradition Law LLP\nIan Scarth, MLT Aikins LLP\nGerrit Theule, Wolseley Law LLP\nK. Eleanor Wiebe, KC, Fillmore Riley LLP\n\n\n\n \nDay one is focused on the fundamentals and setting yourself up for success. This will be essential for lawyers starting out in the area, and will serve as a good refresher for more experienced practitioners. Topics will include: file and client management; using precedents and planning forms; testing for capacity; taking and preserving notes; estate planning; and will drafting.\nDay two will touch on more advanced topics. There will be legislative and caselaw updates both locally and nationally, as well as a comprehensive discussion of advanced planning considerations including: beneficiary designations; estate planning agreements; and dealing with blended families.\nRegistrants are strongly encouraged to purchase the 3rd edition of Drafting Wills in Canada: A Lawyer’s Practical Guide. Upon registration for the CPD program, you will receive a discount code for 20% off the purchase of the Guide.\nThere are limited spots available in the Law Society classroom so be sure to register early if you wish to attend in-person.
