About
In Alberta, when a family maintenance and support (FMS) claims is made against an estate, the Courts are to balance testamentary intention with the need to provide for the deceased’s “family members”, as defined in the Wills and Succession Act. This presentation explores the limits on testamentary intention stemming from the legal rights of certain classes of individuals who can apply to the Court and request a provision from an estate where they were not adequately provided for.
This on-demand program was originally broadcasted as a live webinar on September 13, 2024. Total running time is 1 hour.
