Making a will is something that, because of the reason why we need to do it, is something that is easily put off - yet can lead to huge problems with probate if you don't write one in time.
Writing a last will and testament (to use the proper phrase for it) isn't as complicated as it used to be, and there are now many places online why you can write a legal DIY one!
Title : The Law of Trusts (Butterworths Core Texts S.) Author : James Penner Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : Excellent analysis and very useful
This is a clear and informative guide to the law of trusts that is written in a far more accessible style than most trusts textbooks.
The night before my Equity exam at university, I glanced through this book (in quite a state of desperation!) and found clear, concise explanations to several concepts I had been unable to fathom all year. For a full explanation of the law, you may wish to turn to a weightier tome, but if you want to understand the key principles of trusts at degree level and have a reasonably short time to do it in, this probably your best option - it has just about the right level of detail to help you get to grips with stuff you will hopefully have time to read in more detail later...
Penner's style makes the book both straightforward and interesting (not an easy task when dealing with this area of the law!) and puts this text in the realms of the very, very useful.
Title : Cases and Materials on Equity and Trusts (Cases Materials) Author : Paul Todd Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : An excellent book
This is an excellent book. I would advise that it should be used in conjunction with a "heavier-weight" textbook, such as Hanbury Martin; but as a cases and materials book, it is well worth investigating.
Title : Trusts and Equity (PLTS) Author : Richard Edwards Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : It truly brings Trust law to life!
It is an excellent textbook that de-mystifies and untangles the often confusing intricacies of Trust law. This is a must for the law student who finds this area of law confusing and frightening -I found it explains concepts clearly and concisely - see especially the chapters on Express and Resulting Trusts. It explains the Vandervell cases particularly well...
Title : Planning Your Estate with Wills, Probate and Taxes Author : Denis Clifford Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : Number one in clarity and for basic information
Before you go to a lawyer, read this book! It will save you time - giving you information to be able to ask the most pertinent and specific questions - and therefore save you money!
Title : Trusts and Equity (Foundation Studies in Law S.) Author : Richard Edwards Rating : 4 Stars out of 5. Summary : Straightforward and easy to read
This is one of best textbooks on trusts and equity that I have found. Designed specifically for postgradute and first time law students, it is accessible and uncomplicated. The case law it includes is relevant and very up to date. Perhaps a little too uncritical with regards to cases, and any serious student will need to supplement it with casebooks and further reading, but it is an excellent book for anybody struggling to get to grips with trusts. It gives a good, basic background on any equity topic. If only all law textbooks were as readable as this!
Title : Trusts Law: Text and Materials (Law in Context S.) Author : Graham Moffat Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : Moffat Equity and Trusts
This book is extremely accessible and makes an extremely hard topic in law a great deal easier to understand. The writer avoids fancy words, which can often be confusing, and sticks to the relevant information which results in commendable clarity.
This book was a great help to me during the second year of my law degree and I would recommend it to any undergraduate.
