The Court of Appeal in the mutual Wills case of Walters v Olins [2008] EWCA Civ 782 said
“As recent cases have shown this equitable doctrine dating from the 18th century (Lord Camden’s judgement in Dufour v. Pereira (1769) Dick 419) continues to be a source of contention for the families of those who have invoked it. The likelihood is that in future even fewer people will opt for such an arrangement and even more will be warned against the risks involved.”
Why?
