ICAEW online communities give you the opportunity to post questions, debate topics and keep up to date with sector-specific news. Shall we set up a probate online community? Whether you think it will be useful or not, we’d really like to hear your feedback. Please add your comments below.
Yes
I'd find an online community really useful to discuss with other accountants how they deal with various practical issues, marketing and pricing.
As we are all new to this area, it is very difficult to deal with practical issues especially if in the firm there is only member dealing with Probate work. A forum will be very useful to discuss those odd situations.
Yes very much so We need exactly this— to cover so many aspects in this new field for us as ICAEW registered members I think we need a lot of input from MoorgatePlace to drill it home to banks etc that we are just as involved as solicitors are

I think this, or even a faculty would be really helpful. Whilst it was obvious when doing the course/exam that a fair few practitioners had loads of practical experience in this area already we are one of the firms who have embraced the new licensing as a new area to develop into. The course and exam were OK but didn't touch on any of the myriad practical issues one encounters when actually dealing with cases.
