Conveyancing & Capacity: Emma Slattery BL and Sian Browne take the stage

With just two weeks to go until Conveyancing Conference 2025, taking place live online via Zoom on Wednesday, May 14th, we’re excited to spotlight a key co-presentation that addresses one of the most significant legal developments affecting conveyancing today.

What to expect

Their co-presentation will cover:

  • Safeguarding vulnerable clients in conveyancing transactions
  • Legal duties and authorisations required under decision support arrangements
  • Practical guidance on compliance, risk, and due diligence for solicitors
