A free CPD session on practical risk management in complex conveyancing, presented by Meldon D’Cruz, Principal of Cruz Legal.

This CPD session covers the risk areas that come up in complex property transactions – the ones that can trip you up if you're not looking for them.

Meldon draws on real-world case examples to walk through

  • Critical steps in high-risk transactions from instruction through to settlement
  • Managing non-standard contract terms, special conditions and due diligence issues
  • Practical risk management when acting through trusts, companies and SMSFs
  • Identity verification, fraud risk and managing authority (including powers of attorney and foreign/non-resident clients)
  • Common SRO, FIRB and ATO issues and how to navigate them
  • Key leasing risks in commercial and retail property transactions

What you'll leave with: A sharper understanding of where things go wrong in complex conveyancing, practical strategies for non-standard transactions and structured entities, and insights you can apply to client matters straight away.

Open to Clarence members and non-members.
