Reviews

Review of previous edition
STEP Journal

"a book that can be recommended widely for those involved in probate practice, even for those who would not regard themselves as normally being involved in contentious probate matters ... The information in this book will be a considerable help in avoiding disputes escalating beyond the point of reasonable settlement or even preventing the dispute occurring in the first place ... a useful appendix of forms and precedents ... provides a wealth of material ... a very accessible book, which works well"
