Hear about some of the most interesting Australian legal cases, including deceased estates, forged Wills, financial abuse, divorce and family law disputes, professional and medical negligence, and any other case that has enough drama to be worth discussing. I'm a solicitor specialising in Wills, Estates & Elder Law, so I kinda know what I'm talking about and will try to make it all make sense. This podcast is absolutely not legal advice or a dull legal lecture, but is more a legal soap opera! If you love true crime, but need a break from all the murder, this is the podcast for you!

CASE: The Council of the NSW Bar Association v Rollinson [2021] NSWSC 1319; The Council of the NSW Bar Association v Rollinson [2021] NSWSC 1090; The Council of the NSW Bar Association v Rollinson [2022] NSWSC 407; The Council of the NSW Bar Association v Rollinson (costs) [2021] NSWSC 1091

Michael Rollinson was a barrister and in 2021 there was a delay in receiving his certificate to practice law. He gave an undertaking to stop working as a barrister until he had his practicing certificate. But he didn't stop.

There was an injunction against him to stop working as a solicitor, just until the practicing certificate issue was cleared up. But he didn't stop.

There was a second injunction, but he didn't stop.

There was a court order - he didn't stop.

Finally, he was charged with contempt of court and sentenced to 9 months in prison if he did not stop practicing as a barrister without a practicing certificate...
