Professor, Allard School of Law, University of British Columbia. I specialize in trusts, succession, tax, private law, and inequality. Member, STEP (Society of Trusts and Estates Practitioners) and the Estate Planning Council of Vancouver.
I much enjoyed talking about whether trusts should be made legal persons at the Trusts, Wealth Management and Philanthropy conference, held at the Hong Kong University Faculty of Law. Thanks to Yiran Shi (lnkd.in/g5498vVx), an up-and-coming trusts researcher, for the photo.
