This book covers every aspect of the modern law of wills and is considered to be the definitive practitioner textbook on this area of the law. The new edition contains an extensive collection of precedents, both of complete wills and of separate clauses used in wills. It provides a selection of relevant statutes and includes new sections on post-death instruments and the treatment of foreign property.
Williams on Wills Ninth edition is fully updated to cover all the changes in legislation since the previous edition. In-depth drafting notes to the precedents assist practitioners in creating the most suitable wills for their clients.
This two volume set includes accompanying CD-ROM (containing forms and precedents) and any supplements upon publication.
