Families that do not endure relationship breakdowns, or at least significant differences in opinions, are essentially unicorns in the modern world.

To ensure advisers are off-risk – and adding value – holistic estate planning strategies to manage the ‘outlaws’ are essentially compulsory.

  1. Structuring new trusts to achieve appropriate safety
  2. Conversion of existing trusts to achieve adequate protection
  3. Approaches in the design of testamentary trusts
  4. Legitimately minimising the rights of estranged family members
  5. Story sharing, including from leading court cases

Holistic estate planning arguably has been, and remains, the definition of ‘so hot right now’.

A key part of the story of strategic advisers, particularly as the entire baby boomer generation cohort enters the last phase of their life span, is probate and estate administration.

This session will explore how financial advisers, accountants, risk advisers and other lawyers can leverage View’s estate administration and probate platform to radically expand their holistic estate planning related offerings; and – arguably more importantly – get off risk.

In particular, the webinar will step through all the key issues that advisers need to know in relation to delivering facilitated administration of any deceased estate, including:

  1. The main steps in obtaining probate
  2. Opportunities for advisers delivering facilitated estate administration solutions
  3. Pricing of estate administration products

At last count there were over 2,150 separate speaking and presentation skills that Matthew Burgess of View has studied and leveraged.

This webinar will provide a modern day version of the Pareto Principle (aka the 80-20 rule, that is 80% of a result comes from 20% of the input).

The modern day iteration being that it is in many situations more like a 99-1 rule; not 80-20.  That is 99% of a result can be sourced from merely 1% of the input.

This webinar will focus on the key foundational speaking strategies to help you and your team create radically disproportionate improvements in all forms of communication, including:

  • A ‘go to’ structure for every presentation, of any description.
  • Overview of the key speaking strategies.
  • A deeper dive into critical speaking skills (being the 1% that are likely to be the most impactful).
  • Further learning guidance.

In 2023, perhaps more than any other year recently, the appropriateness of various trust structures is in sharp focus. 

With the only certainty seemingly change, the concept of 'designer trusts' is arguably on trend for many specialist advisers. 

In particular, throughout the life cycle of a trust, there are a range of situations that may mean a fundamental re-engineering of the trust structure is required. 

Using stories and case study examples, this webinar will explore a range of issues in relation to all key forms of designer trusts, including: 

  1. leading cases  
  2. trust law rules  
  3. tax risks 
  4. stamp duty exposures

Many observers are predicting that the changes to the professional services industries over the next 3 years will be unprecedented.

A ‘perfect storm’ across issues such as digital disruption, de-leveraging and new entrants mean that the only certainty will be change.

The key question for every professional is – what do we do?

This case study based webinar will provide practical and actionable ideas learnt by View (often the hard way) over the last 36 months, addressing themes including:

  • The impact of digitalisation and technology
  • Why the time is now for distributed solopreneurs and boutique firms
  • Exploring the democratisation of service providers and the key ‘3 P’s’ (process, product and pricing)

  • Definitions of income and capital
  • Understanding the key beneficiary classes
  • Family Trust Elections and Interposed Entity Elections

Many specialist advisers have business plans that consist of one word - ‘trusts’.

A significant reason for this is the myriad of seemingly never ending problems with trust deeds.

In the lead up to another 30 June, this webinar will explore numerous trust ‘horror’ stories that View has helped resolve – all shared with the aim of helping avoid similar problems arising in the future.

Every year since 2017 View’s ‘Trust Horror Stories’ webinars have been one of our most popular events, the 2023 webinar is entirely new content, sourced from the last 12 months.

Learn from a range of case studies, including:

  1. But 2010 isn’t that long ago, is it (?)
  2. Non-bare bare trusts and unstamped trust declarations
  3. 1x lost codicil, 2x court application, 3x testamentary trust
  4. When 12 trusts are barely enough
  5. Trust succession on incapacity – does it matter?

At least statistically, blended families are an issue in at least every second estate plan.

And, at least in theory, there are no particularly unique issues from an estate planning perspective that need to be considered in a blended family situation, as compared to any other estate planning exercise.

In saying this however, there are a number of strategies that have been developed that arguably are rarely relevant, unless there is a blended family situation.

Following the success of last year’s event, in 2023 learn about 14 further strategies in this webinar, including:

  1. Rinehart Rules
  2. Creating a Never Ending Story
  3. The Warren Buffett Way
  4. Ruling from the grave
  5. There’s a Coopers for that

In this podcast, the View Legal team explore the following topic ‘The Year in ReView' which was held on 18 November 2021.

At least once a week throughout the course of 2021, Matthew Burgess has shared insights in relation to business model iterations, the future of the professions, time billing and many other insights and observations.

In this special event, Matthew reviews the highs and lows from 2021 in what will be a fast-paced, thought-provoking and at times likely controversial one hour webinar.

Best of all, the entry price is at one of Matthew’s favourite price points, namely, free!

  1. If you think hiring a professional is ‘expensive’ try out an amateur …
  2. The BIG hidden MIRACLE SECRET to access an INSTANT 224.3% increase in daily chargeables
  3. ‘You failed to kept (sic) up with your 100% mistake rate’

Oct 25, 2021

In this podcast, the View Legal team explore the following topic ‘Project management: One View' which was held on 21 October 2021.

In many business succession arrangements

Regardless of whether you chose to abandon timesheets (no prizes for View’s view on that), outstanding project management is arguably the single most important issue for professional service providers heading into 2022.

Since embracing a timeless business model (with all work scoped and priced upfront) project management has become arguably the biggest investment made by View.

Many of the principles View now embraces are because we first tried every other known approach - and failed.

To help you avoid enduring the same journey, this webinar uses case study examples and insights from the leading thinkers in the area to answer the following questions:

  1. Why the main thing, is keeping the main thing, the main thing
  2. What one, off the shelf tool, can change everything
  3. How workflow management is rarely helped by any form of technology
  4. What are the 7 biggest lies of the project management industry
  5. How can you avoid making the wrong mistakes
