Description

There has been a significant move away from the traditional nuclear model for family arrangements over the last half century. 

We explored the way the law in different jurisdictions treats cohabitation, adoption, legitimacy, and gender issues within estates and the impact of human rights legislation in this area. 

Experts from various jurisdictions discussed how law-makers and lawyers have been grappling with these issues, and the extent to which there is consistency across borders in cross border estate planning and administration.
