Book Description

29 April 2005
This invaluable book really will enable you to prepare your own will. It will alert you to the many and broad ranging matters you should consider, and covers factual and legal requirements and technicalities. Gordon Bowley draws on his thirty years of experience as a family solicitor to suggest the best and most effective ways to 'have your last say'. Because this informative book is aimed at lay-people, it is written in plain English rather than using legal terms. The few terms used are all explained in a glossary. Specimen forms, sample wills and sample clauses make it even easier to set up your own will and save a lot of money.

Product Description

Review

"If you want to save a lot of money on solicitor’s bills buy this book." -- The Observer

‘Covers the things a solicitor would tell you if you could afford to pay for the time it would take.’ -- A reader

From the Author

This book is written to assist you whether you wish to prepare your own will or to use a professional to make it for you.It is the result of experience gained by listening to thousands of clients, advising them and preparing wills to meet their needs during over 30 years in practice as a family solicitor.

The book covers more than the formal factual legal reuirements of making a will. It also gives general and specific advice on the many and wide ranging matters which it is essential to consider when making a good and effective will. These include inheritance tax saving, the number and choice of executors, funerals, guardianship of children, avoiding challenges to the will, the family home, the handicapped, remarriage, living wills, foreign property, wills made abroad deeds of family arrangement and much more.

A detailed index is included to help you find what you are looking for without difficulty together with easily adaptable sample wills with full notes and instructions for completing them and a checklist.

Above all I have tried to bear in mind throughout that the book is intended primarily for non-lawyers and to take a logical, step-by-step approach using only plain English. I have used as few technical terms as conveniently possible and included a glossary to explain those that have been used.

I think it will enable you to prepare a good will which will meet your requirements.

Format:Paperback
This book is thorough, detailed and comprehensive but at the same time easy to understand. It is full of sensible advise and not only points out problems but supplies practical solutions. The sample wills and documents are easy to use and well explained.

A very good buy.
