Various members of Chambers will be in attendance.
Clare Stanley KC and Jennifer Seaman will be speaking on a panel entitled, ‘Future-Proofing: Anticipating Key Legal Issues for the Year Ahead’, a quick-fire session on key legal issues the Contentious Trusts world will be grappling with in the near future and key cases coming up over the next year.
