FREETH CARTWRIGHT TRIPLE WHAMMY?
The IT Applications Team at heavyweight law firm Freeth Cartwright is on the road to winning 3 coveted industry awards. The first win, Derbyshire & Nottinghamshire Chamber of Commerce’s Nottinghamshire’s Best Business Awards 2010 award, Innovation through Technology, was announced last Friday at a gala dinner at Colwick Hall Hotel.
STANDARDS REGIME
There has been some speculation over the last few months in terms of what will happen with the abolition of the Standards Board for England - in particular there has been some discussion in terms of whether the Standards regime would remain with the Standards Board itself being abolished. This has been clarified by a press release issued this week by Communities Minister, Andrew Stunell which can be found on the Standards Board for England or DCLG websites. He has confirmed that the Government are very unhappy with the whole Standards regime, saying it had become a “vehicle for malicious and frivolous complaints”.
Whilst post-recession corporate funding remains cautious, asset-based lending is proving to be a growing lifeline for UK businesses, says Phil Baigent, banking partner at Freeth Cartwright’s Birmingham office.

Introduction
Welcome to the Freeth Cartwright Charity Legacies Team Autumn Bulletin. The purpose of the bulletin is to keep charities informed of issues which can arise when a charity is left a legacy or bequest in a will, and how best to deal with disputes when they arise. The Team is able to assist by providing technical legal advice and practical guidance and assistance to develop a clear strategy for resolving disputes as quickly and cost effectively as possible.
In this edition of the bulletin, we consider the most common claims that we see brought against estates. We also draw key practical points from recent high profile cases.
