5.0 out of 5 stars EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW, 14 Aug 2005
This review is from: Wills, Probate & Inheritance Tax for Dummies (Paperback)
This is the best and most informative book in these three fields. I bought this along with the which?guide and this is far better. I am currently taking an estate through probate and this book is proving invaluable.
I only knew a little about probate and found this easy to use informative guide both accessible and written in plain English.

1.0 out of 5 stars LIMITED CONTENT, 1 Jan 2009
This book is written in a jazzy journalistic style but the content itself is limited. I am particularly concerned that there mistakes in the inheritance tax examples concerning the transfer of the unused part of a nil rate band to the surviving spouse. If you are looking for a book which clearly explains how to obtain grant of probate and administer an estate, there are better books out there such as 'A Step-by-Step Guide to Wills and Probate'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very clear and easy to follow, 31 Jan 2008
This review is from: Wills, Probate & Inheritance Tax for Dummies (Paperback)
I'm really impressed that someone has taken such a daunting and legal subject and managed to explain it in a way that anyone can understand. Whether you're writing your own will, or sorting out the affairs of someone else, I don't think you could find a clearer book on the subject.
