A litany of loans: party loans, Division 7A, debt
About
As part of our continuing Webinar Property Series, this session brings together leading experts in valuation and litigation to unpack one of the most complex areas intersecting property, business structures and family law: the treatment of loans. Whether dealing with related party loans, navigating the intricacies of Division 7A, or addressing miscellaneous debt, practitioners routinely encounter challenges that blur accounting, valuation, and legal analysis.In this webinar, Certified Property and Business Valuer Kristy Kerswell—founder of Kerswell Valuation and specialist in expert witness engagements—will explore how loan structures are scrutinised in valuation contexts, particularly in adversarial matters. Barrister Allysha-Jane Merrett, whose broad litigation background spans family law, commercial disputes, and estate matters, will examine how courts approach these loans in practice and the key evidentiary issues practitioners must anticipate.
This session will provide practical guidance on identifying, characterising and evidencing loans across disputes, offering attendees a deeper understanding of loan treatment in both valuation and litigation frameworks.
