Mark Baxter to present webinar on the Court of Protection for Certainty – The National Will Register

On 25 April 2019, Mark Baxter will be presenting a webinar on the Court of Protection for Certainty – The National Will Register. The title of his talk is P’s Assets and the Court of Protection: Gifting, Investing, and Recovery. Further details are as follows:

“P’s Deputy or Attorney is often someone closely associated with them, even with entwined financial interests – this gives rise to potential conflicts of interest, not least the possibility of applying P’s assets in a way that benefits the Deputy or Attorney. The Court of Protection has considered this question in several cases and not always reached the same conclusion: so is it possible to divine the applicable principles? Further, if P’s assets have been applied improperly, how can they be recovered?

Agenda:

• How the Court of Protection deals with conflicts of interest
• The Court’s approach to gifting & investing
• Collateral benefit from P’s assets
• Grounds for recovery
• Recovery during P’s lifetime & after death

You can sign up for the webinar on the Certainty website from 4 April.
