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 and Equitable Obligations
Author : Robert A. Pearce
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : A pleasure to read - detailed and well researched

I honestly believe that those who gave this book a bad review are either (a) not very bright and/or (b) have never actually read the book itself.

It is a well written and lucid book that was researched with vigour.

The book covers the essentials of Trust law.
1. A history of Equity
2. Certainty (of intention, subject matter and objects)
3. Formalities and Constitution
4. Purpose trusts (e.g. trusts for a charity)
5. Resulting and constructive trusts
6. Trustees powers and duties
7. Liability for breach of trusts
8. Tracing

I have read the whole book, and (I know most law students will find this hard to believe) I really did enjoy it.
It flows well, and I read 100 pages with ease.
It was my recommended textbook and I am glad it was.

There are a few typos (pages 397, 541, 512, 635)but who really cares?

I think this book, now in its third edition has an excellent balance between facts, cases, principles and criticism.

Furthermore it is easy to understand.

Ignore the bad reviews, they are absolutely wrong.

Title : Trusts and Equity (Foundation Studies in Law S.)
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 : Wills and Probate: How to Make a Will and How to Administer the Estate of Someone Who Has Died, with or without Employing a Solicitor (Which? Consumer Guides)
Author : Consumers' Association
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : General information but lacking in detail

This guide devotes 20% of its pages to writing a will and 80% to dealing with someones estate after their death. It covers all of the main areas such as inheritance tax, trusts, intestacy, guardianship, joint ownership etc. This book covers some of the differences between England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

As far as writing a will is concerned, the book provides inadequate information to do it properly by yourself but does give you all of the questions that you need to think about. As such, I would recommend this book to someone to read before seeing the solicitor.

Title : The Modern Law of Trusts
Author : David B. Parker
Rating : 1 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Who is this book written for?

This book is written in the style of a friendly guide to law rather than a textbook. This creates confusion as the book sets out to discuss in detail problems with trusts in the English common law but does so in a fudgy you know what I mean kind of a way. Discussion centres around conceptual, more abstract, aspects of trusts and equity but with inadequate reference to the technical nature of the law (you really need to be able to supply this for yourself). Worse still, Parker and Mellows do not address all issues relevant to law students and their tendancy to gloss over some of the more technical aspects of the law explains why their conclusions leave the reader feeling unsatisfied. I would only recommend this book to someone who has a good basic knowledge of trusts as a basis for discussion. It is not an accurate guide to the law and is likely to confuse the undergraduate and mentally damage the more general reader.

Title : A Step-by-step Guide to Wills and Probate
Author : Keith Biggs
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : all the basics you need to knwo..

this is a good all round guide to drafting wills and dealing with the difficult task of what to do after a death in terms of winding up an estate. It doesn't go into very complex will drafting but in that instance as the book suggests you would really need to get a solicitor involved. However, it does allow you to draft most types of wills and certainly explains the proceedure following death in a clear and concise manner.

Title : Tolley's Pension Fund Trustee Handbook
Author : Roger Self
Rating : 3 Stars out of 5.
Summary : The standard book for the PMI certificate - needs an update

Tolley's Pension Fund Trustee Handbook is just one of the many books written and edited by Roger Self on the subject of pensions. It is specially geared towards the lay trustee wanting to acquire more expertise in this ever more complicated area . For this purpose, it remains the absolute standard and none of its completitors get anywhere near in terms of clarity. However, the book badly needs an up-date and this might be used as an occasion to broaden the scope of the book to make more useful in general.

Title : Trusts (Nutshell S.)
Author : Angela Sydenham
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : A review of the Nutshells book on Equity and Trusts

I would definitely recommend this book to all those who are studying Equity. Unlike many legal text books, this one is written is such a way that it accessible to all, both the beginner and those who wish to clarify points on equity that they have studied. It provides the reader with a common sense approach to equity and while it can sometimes simplify some points of law, it generally provides a sufficiently detailed explanation of Equity and helps the reader to better understand this difficult subject. Another advantage to this book is that it does not saturate the reader with endless lists of cases, instead concentrating on the most important cases and providing explanations of all necessary facts in an accessible manner. In order for this book to be used as an easy reference guide while studying, the index is clear yet sufficiently detailed enabling you to find certain aspects of this area of law quickly and easily. In conclusion, this book is ideal as both a study guide and those who simply have an interest in the subject. While perhaps not detailed enough to be used as a textbook on its own, it provides a great reference point for any law student at an affordable and extremely reasonable price.
