Wills - Step by Step Guide & Precedents

by By Lawyers For Lawyers author - C M Teng

Overview

This Wills Step-by-Step Legal Practice Guide and Precedents contains precedent wills and guidance for the following three situations:

  1. for a single testator
  2. for spouse to spouse, and then children; and
  3. using schedules for use in blended family and other more complex situations

As with all Step-by-Step Guides this guide takes you sequentially through a Wills matter from getting the matter underway and taking instructions, right through to finalisation.

A wide range of issues are discussed including testamentary capacity, revocation, executors, and estate duty. This guide includes a Library of Provisions.
