Introduction

As the new Trust & Succession (Scotland) Act received Royal Assent in January 2024, practitioners should be live to the changes in the law, particularly where a dispute has or may arise.

This webinar will go through some of the key areas where disputes arise in practice and will provide practical advice on approaching these issues whether acting for the beneficiaries or the trustees in these scenarios.

The webinar is aimed at anyone dealing with the administration of Trusts in Scotland where disputes arise.

What You Will Learn

This short webinar will cover the following:

  • The removal of trustees - what can and cannot be achieved outside of court and new issues with the legislation
  • Seeking trust information - is there clarity on what can be obtained or what the court options are?
  • Breaches of trust - how has the duty of care changed and what defences are available to trustees?
  • Trustees’ liability - when are trustees personally liable or delictually liable for co-trustees?
  • Other quirks from the new Act - what new areas of dispute might be seen following these changes?

This pre-recorded webinar will be available to view from Tuesday 8th April 2025
