Summer Session 2008-09

lec > subject pages > succession
 
 
 
  The law of Succession is concerned with the law of wills and the administration of deceased estates.  The applicable principles vary depending upon whether the deceased dies with or without a will and in either case are subject to permissible claims under the Family Provision Act 1982 (NSW).

The object of the course is to acquaint students with the relevant statutory principles and case authorities to enable them to administer deceased estates and to anticipate and avoid administration and other succession problems by the professional drafting of wills and the provision of professional advice to clients.
