Rezensionen / Stimmen
...as handy a reference tool as ever. Any will-drafters unfamiliar with Parker's should be urged to give it a try. -- Sian Thompson, Private Client Team, Swayne Johnson, Llandudno * Law Society Gazette (Review of 9th edition) * ...I rate this book highly. It is a refreshingly simple book, which one can just dip into with ease * The STEP Journal (review of a previous edition) * Parker's Will Precedents has always professed to be a simple and concise guide to will drafting. In my opinion, the 10th edition once again merits that description. * The Law Society Gazette * Any Will drafter should have this book in their arsenal. Even if the case you are dealing with is complex, this book can often provide a starting point for further research...This book is written in plain English and is a gem of clarity and readability. * Law Skills *
