Estate and Gift Planning in the Time of COVID-19 - Via Zoom

 Registration is closed for this event
This is a joint meeting with the: BC CBA – Charities & NPO Law Section. The COVID-19 outbreak has drawn world-wide attention to the critical importance of having a sound estate plan in place, but has also created significant challenges to carrying out its implementation. We will discuss the legislative and practical solutions that have arisen in response, as well as the impact the outbreak will have on the administration of estates going forward. We will also discuss the technicalities of signing gift documentation during COVID (estate releases, gift agreements and deeds): both the legal requirements and best practices. This will address documents that include a space for a witness, signing agreements in counterpart, and original signatures versus electronically-applied signatures, and original and scanned copies.
