Details:
Succession, Wills and Probate is an ideal textbook for those taking an undergraduate course in this surprisingly vibrant subject and provides a clear and comprehensive introduction for professionals. The book covers the main social and political themes of succession law and gives detailed explanations of core topics such as alternatives to wills and the making, altering, and revocation of wills. It also explains personal representatives and how they should deal with a deceased person's estate, interpret, and implement the will.
The book covers various challenges such as gifts failing, estates being insolvent, or a person dying intestate (without a will). Increasingly, relatives and others seek to challenge the will, for example, on the grounds of the testator's capacity or under the law of family provision. This third edition is edited, updated, and revised to account for new legislation and case law, with a new final chapter addressing contentious issues that have become more central to professional work in the field of succession.
