Charitable Legacies - Key Challenges for Probate Professionals

Introduction

The Institute of Legacy Management has recently reported a ‘significant surge in legacies received by charities’ with a record high of almost 600,000 legacies being left to charities in the last year.

This webinar will explore the difficulties that can arise with legacies to charities in wills and the common drafting pitfalls to avoid these for your clients.

The webinar will go on to discuss the ways such ambiguity can be resolved by the personal representatives (‘PRs’) in the administration of the estate, as well as various claims that often affect legacies to charities.
