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 : French Property and Inheritance Law: Principles and Practice Author : Henry Dyson Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : Excellent reference source
My remarks refer to the second edition, which I recently found in our local library. This is a well-written book (unfortunately marred by some spelling errors and some poor editing). It gives a very eloquent insight into French property law and succession law while sticking to practical matters and avoiding unnecessary theory. The author's wife is French and she is credited with helping the author gain some of his insights. I particularly enjoyed the chapter on the notaires, but this chapter alone made me very wary of dealing in French property. Many foreigners have done so and do not seem to have much trouble, but it is well to be aware of all the snags that can arise. Caveat emptor is the golden rule, but this book will be indispensable for anybody taken on the daunting task of buying a gite or other type of property in France.
Title : Principles of Equity and the Law of Trusts (Principles of Law S.) Author : Alastair Hudson Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : our lives, as law students, has been made easier
As a Greek student whose native language is not English, I found myself pleased to be reading such a book. Equity and trusts is not an easy subject;nevertheless, this book is very easily understood. Its structure is clear with all the important points sufficiently highlighted to the reader. It is not a law textbook that just sets out the law. It includes useful commentary, without yet going into futile and long discussions. I would really recommend this book to every law student. It is a guarantee of success in this subject of law.
Title : The Complete Book of Trusts Author : Martin Shenkman Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : Excellent!!!
The Cmplete Book of Trusts is an excellent reference for general knowledge about a very cmplex subject! I highly recommend this book to anyone with a need to know. This author has managed to take the "legal" language and break it down into understandable English!
Title : The Self-help Guide to Managing Death and Probate: Manage the Legal and Financial Side of Death Yourself Author : Gordon Bowley Rating : 3 Stars out of 5. Summary : Death Probate - Practical Comment
This book covers making executing/administering a will in England Wales (Note: This legal jurisdiction is important and unclear from the author's and amazon's description). As stated by others the pro-forma letters are useful. It is written in a style appropriate to its most common readers i.e. the recently bereaved, its easy to read and very inoffensive. Its good on probate wills, but weak on tax affairs (presumably to aid the books longevity).
I bought this book and found it useful when needing this knowledge.
Title : Williams on Wills: Supplement to 7r.e Author : Sir William J. Williams Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : The best book of its kind
I cannot recommend this book too highly. It combines a full account of the law relating to wills with a volume of precedents covering virtually every common situation.
Title : Islamic Will: Practical Guide to Death and Writing Your Will According to the Shari'a of Islam and English Law Author : Abdal Hagg Hajj Rating : 4 Stars out of 5. Summary : A very good title on a very importantn topic
All Muslims need to have made a will for themselves according to Islamic Law and this book provides not only a clear andetailed outline on how to write an Islamic will thats valid under English Law it also provides a pull out and fill in will form for you to use immeidiately. A very good title and well worth buying though I think any will you do draw up should be double checked by a solicitor just to make sure.
Title : Immortality Made Easy: Everything You Always Wanted to Know about Wills, Trusts, Probate, Marriage and Foundations Author : Paul Rampell Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : This is an awesome book.
This is an awesome book. The author makes fun of wills and death. It is like a book in the "Dummies" series, since it is written in easy english. I recommend it to anyone who is beginning their last will and testament. Rampell's humor is self-deprecating ---- lots of lawyer jokes.
