- Semester 1 (February)
Unit synopsis
Our legal system is premised on the right of individuals to own private property. Succession deals with the legal consequences of death on a person's property, planning for death and incapacity. It also addresses what happens if a person dies without a will, as well as how estates are administered. Succession has links to other important areas of law, namely equity and trusts, property law and family law. Succession is an evolving area of legal practice. Family provision actions are increasing as more people challenge will dispositions or inheritance by way of intestacy on the grounds of inadequate provision. Estate planning is becoming a major area of practice. The notion of what comprises the 'estate' at death is a developing area, with some inter vivos transactions being set aside as unconscionable bargains. With its links to real property, equity, trusts and family law, Succession will assist you to see the connection between different areas of law.
