1. Practitioners often help their clients to prepare the Wills. No matter how careful a solicitor may be, mistakes happen at times. To make good the mistakes, section 5(2) the Wills Ordinance (Cap. 30) (“WO”) was introduced in 1995 to cure the defects in form or execution of the Wills. Further, section 23A WO was added so that a mistake contained in the context of the Wills may be rectified.
