My work
SK v RA [2021] – Jala was instructed to represent the Defendant in claim brought by the Claimant for a financial provision from her former partner’s estate under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975. The matter had a cross jurisdiction element, namely Bangladesh. Jala advanced argument, amongst others, in respect the deceased had a Bengali domicile of origin, and was domiciled in Bangladesh at the time of death thus the C has no right under the Act.
