The masterclass will provide an update on the recent developments in Wills, Taxation and Administration. It will cover the latest case law developments and changes to practice and procedure. It will also look at the new rules on the taxation of low income trusts and estates, and the problems they may cause for the Trustees of Discretionary and Accumulation Trusts, and the implications of the Court of Appeal decisions in Kenig and Pead v Prostate Cancer UK.

It will also look at the way in which the courts approach assisted suicide cases and relief from forfeiture applications.
