Description
This masterclass offers a strategic blueprint for mastering Order 72 of the Rules of Court 2012 (“ROC”), guiding both plaintiffs and defendants from the initial client intake through to final judgment. By exploring critical first moves, the nuances of the ROC 2012 and the tactical handling of probate evidence, practitioners will learn to strengthen their cases against common procedural pitfalls. The session concludes with an interactive Question-and-Answer (“Q&A”) segment designed to address complex real-world challenges in estate litigation.
