24.01.2022 MEDIA RELEASE: QLS has voiced its disappointment over the conduct of high profile criminal solicitor Tim Meehan after his plea of guilty today to a string of se...rious criminal offences.

17.01.2022 This week, the justice system had a win with the official reopening of the drug courts in Queensland. We at Queensland Law Society were very pleased to see this... come to fruition, after advocating for their reintroduction since they were scrapped in 2012.

Following the State election, our QLS Criminal Law Committee made submissions to Parliament and appeared at the public hearing to encourage this legislation. To find out more about the reopening of the drug courts, read the latest blog post by QLS president, Ken Taylor. http://ow.ly/9qql30i9BgJ See more

15.01.2022 Do you have an elderly relative who wants to make significant changes to their will or power of attorney? If you do, it is best practice to get their GP and/or treating doctor to provide a written assessment of their "capacity" (i.e ability to make a legally binding document - doctors can undertake such an assessment). The purpose in doing this is that it will make it harder to have the will/power of attorney overturned/declared void (i.e a significant departure from the previous will can be open to challenge by disgruntled beneficiaries).

02.01.2022 In Prince Alfred College Incorporated v ADC [2016] HCA 37 the High Court of Australia held that the relevant principals to be applied in deciding whether an employer is responsible for the negligent actions of its employees was as follows: 1. To consider any special role that the employer has assigned to the employee and the position in which the employee is thereby placed vis-a-vis the victim; 2. In determining whether the apparent performance of such a role may be said to g...ive the occasion for the wrongful act, particular features may be taken into account. They include: a) authority; b) power; c) trust; d) control; and e) the ability to achieve intimacy with the victim. The latter features may be especially important. In the context the "particular features" should be read as each being over or with respect to the victim.
