*Important message - TLA response to COVID-19*

Toronto Lawyers Association has been monitoring the COVID-19 situation and is taking the advice of public health experts.  We will not be hosting any live events until the end of April 2020, to support the social distancing measures currently being implemented.  

TLA is proud of the intimate and social nature of our live education programs.  As a result we will be rescheduling this for a later date.

If you have already registered, your ticket will be honoured at the later date.

We will continue to monitor the situation and will provide further updates, including decisions about  future events.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support of the TLA.





This program contains 30 minutes of Professionalism Content and 75 minutes of Substantive Content.






If you are you starting out as a Wills & Estates lawyer, or have some experience under your belt but need a refresher, then you’ll want to join our panel of seasoned lawyers from the Bar as they:

  • Delve into the issue of assisted dying (MAID)
  • Consider the drafting and explain the impact of no contest clauses, burial clauses and special trustee clauses.
  • Explore secondary will drafting issues, and estate administration challenges.
  • Discuss legal updates including blended families, divorce and estate planning and posthumously conceived children.
  • Review, and comment on, dependant support claims.

Plus, we’ll walk you through precedents that are tied to your questions through sponsors Lexis Nexis and NoticeConnect and provide other practical information that you can apply right away!
