Join us for an interesting panel discussion by Michelle Bennett, Kellie Woods and Rein Squires discussing issues that can arise between death and burial including:

• Who determines whether it’s a burial or a cremation;
• Who gets carriage of the funeral arrangements;
• Who gets custody of the deceased’s ashes;
• Posthumous sperm retrieval; and
• DNA testing in the context of deceased estate matters.

The seminar considers the principles that the Supreme Court may apply in approaching these issues. It also covers factors to consider when advising clients in emotionally charged and time sensitive circumstances.
