Wills reform – Private Client Solicitors’ Section seminar

The reform of Section 18 of the Wills Act 1837: the biggest change in 5 generations.

The Law Commission of England and Wales have issued a supplementary consultation paper on reforming the law of wills in the light of recent technological and societal developments. The commission is seeking views on whether a new Wills Act should permit paperless wills, either immediately or by allowing for them to be introduced later. the paper is part of a wider review to ensure that the legislative framework governing wills – currently based on the Wills Act 1837 and case law – reflects contemporary needs.
