Discovering Errors and Omissions in a Will: the Report, the Repair, and (Avoiding) the Claim 

Jun. 18, 2026
Online


OBA Trusts & Estates Law PROGRAM | 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM (ET)

No one is immune to making mistakes, even the most cautious Will-drafters. Sometimes drafting errors are small typographical mistakes or erroneous paragraph numbering. Other times key provisions are accidentally omitted or assets are misdescribed.  Most errors are caught through careful proofreading, but what happens when errors are discovered after a Will is signed, and in particular, after the client has died?

Join our expert faculty as they share guidance on navigating the discovery of a Will-drafting error, through the process of repair, with a focus on the law of rectification and interpretation of Wills.
 
Gather helpful insights on key issues, including:

  • Discovery and reporting of a Will-drafting error to LAWPRO;
  • Client management when acting for the executor;
  • The latest Rectification and Will Interpretation;
  • Initiating a claim and quantifying damages


Whether you are a litigator or a planner, you will not want to miss this essential program.
