OBA Trusts & Estates law PROGRAM | Original Program Date: July 20, 2021

Will challenges involve the unusual process of converting an application into an action. This conversion and the subsequent trial can be unfamiliar territory for many estate litigators, whose practices focus primarily on applications.

Join us for this essential series to get everything you need to know about will challenges, from application to trial. Our expert faculty of estates and civil litigators will share invaluable advice and critical insights on key substantive, procedural and practice issues.

You’ll walk away with a practical toolkit and ready to tackle your next will challenge with confidence.

This session will cover:

• Capacity, Fraud, Undue Influence, Knowledge and Approval
• Unraveling the Evidentiary Issues around “Suspicious Circumstances”
• Admissibility Challenges and Productions
• What You Need to Know about Evidentiary Thresholds
