AACP is excited to celebrate the growth of Collaborative Practice in Wills & Estates in NSW

On 19 September, AACP President Sue Abrams had the honour of serving as MC at the launch event for the Collaborative Professionals (NSW) Wills & Estates Practice Group in Sydney. It was an evening marked by warmth, enthusiasm and a strong sense of community among the 100+ attendees, all united by a shared commitment to this emerging area of practice.

A highlight of the evening came from the inspiring words of the Honourable Justice Jane Needham who officially launched the Practice Group. Her Honour’s support for Collaborative Practice, especially in the wills and estates space, was both motivating and affirming.

Several other distinguished guests were in attendance, including the Honourable Justice Kunc SC, the Honourable Philip Hallen SC, the Honourable Justice Robert Sutherland SC, and the Chair of STEP NSW, Phillip McGowan. Their presence and acknowledgment of the significance of the launch underscored the growing interest in the collaborative approach within the legal community.

Our congratulations to everyone who made this event a success, in particular Collaborative Professionals (NSW), the CP(NSW) Wills & Estates Practice Group Working Party and AACP’s Corporate Sponsor, JLL, who were the venue host for the vent.

AACP looks forward to the continued growth of Collaborative Practice in this area and the positive impact it will have on families and practitioners alike.
