JTJB’s Senior Partner Mabel Tan along with Partners Florence Goh, Tan Seow Peer and Associate Branda Lai delivered a number of seminars on the importance of writing a will and granting a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA).
Initially, only one seminar was planned but following an article published in the Sunday Times (28 September 2014), the event received much interest from clients and the general public alike and additional seminars were organized. The seminars aimed to raise awareness for the need to make informative decisions on writing a will and granting an LPA at an early stage.
