The Trusts and Estates Committee was formed in 2015 and has gone from strength to strength.  It has members from at least twenty different law practices, including sole practitioners and members of large national law firms.  While a majority of the committee members have a private client and advisory based practice, there are a number of members with a disputes or litigation based practice too. 

The Committee usually meets on the third Monday of each.  Each month features either an external speaker presenting on a topical issue, or a speaker from within the Committee.  The meetings are collaborative and interactive.  The speakers, topics, and learning objectives are circulated in advance and a number of practitioners claim CPD hours for the meetings. 

The monthly meetings cover a range of matters including significant law changes, case law updates, proposed law.
