Chancery And Court Of Protection

Did you love studying the weird and wonderful world of Equity and Trusts? Then today’s episode is for you. We hear from Constance McDonnell QC, a traditional chancery barrister, who tells us how a chancery practice can lead to that elusive work-life balance and why people skills - and not just intellect - are essential. And then we look into one of the most mysterious and little-known courts with Claire van Overdijk: the Court of Protection. Guests Constance McDonnell QC barrister at Serle Court http://www.serlecourt.co.uk/news/article/constance-mcdonnell-qc Claire van Overdijk barrister at Outer Temple https://www.outertemple.com/barristers/claire-van-overdijk/ Useful Links Glossary CCG: Clinical commissioning groups Probate: the law concerning the administration of a person’s property, money and possessions (their ‘estate’) once they are dead. Mediation: a meeting between parties to litigation or proposed litigation which aims to resolve the dispute by arriving at a settlement. The parties are helped by a mediator who facilitates discussion. Anything discussed at a mediation is ‘without prejudice’. FDR: Financial Dispute Resolution Hearing, a judge-directed mediation where a judge will assist the parties by expressing a view on a point of law. Without prejudice: a party who makes a statement (either orally or in writing) and indicates that it is ‘without prejudice’ cannot be held to that statement, i.e. that statement cannot be relied upon by the other party in the course of the litigation. P: the person without capacity whose best interests are under discussion in the context of Court of Protection work.
