‘Mediating probate and trust disputes—process challenges and tools: part 2’ – My article has been published by Oxford University Press in print for distribution worldwide in Trusts & Trustees, Volume 29, Issue 7, September 2023, Pages 667–681 – https://lnkd.in/e-a658_b. There are links to the article and to Part 1 on the ‘Publications’ page at www.carlislam.co.uk.
