Ethical Issues for NSW Wills and Estates Practitioners

Solicitors have professional obligations not just to clients but to the Court, other professionals and third parties. These obligations are codified in the revised Professional Conduct and Practice Rules 1995 ("the Rules"). For practitioners in the area of Wills and Estates, frequently circumstances will arise where each of the obligations may come into conflict. As practitioners, it is important that we are familiar with the Rules as they relate to our practice.
