Contesting a Will without a Lawyer by Lynne Butler Pdf

Wills and estates matters can be complex and emotional. Many people feel that whatever has happened to derail an estate is the result of someone acting in a way that is selfish, greedy, or even criminal. Sometimes someone wants to stop abuse or fraud, or simply ensure the deceased’s wishes are carried out. Perhaps financial support from the estate is warranted and not received. Often, these types of issues need to be brought before the courts to be resolved. Contesting a Will without a Lawyer: The DIY guide for Canadians not only informs the reader of the types of lawsuits that touch on estates matters and what is involved in each to help with the decision of whether or not to sue over an estate dispute; it is also for those who decide to go ahead with a lawsuit on their own, to help them navigate paperwork and the court system. It answers questions such as: • What are the legal grounds for contesting a will? • What are the pros and cons of starting a lawsuit about a will? • What evidence will I need and how do I get it? • How long does it take? • Are there steps I should take before starting the lawsuit? • What forms do I need and how do I use them? • Do I need a lawyer or can I handle this myself? • Will the estate or the other side cover my costs? Author and lawyer Lynne Butler offers factual and straightforward explanations in this indispensable book for anyone considering estate litigation. The download kit contains: • Statement of Claim • Caveats • Checklists to help you on your way — And more!

Succession, Wills and Probate by Caroline Sawyer,Miriam Spero Pdf

Succession, Wills and Probate is an ideal textbook for those taking an undergraduate course in this surprisingly vibrant subject, and also provides a clear and comprehensive introduction for professionals. Against an account of the main social and political themes of succession law, the book gives detailed explanations of core topics such as alternatives to wills and the making, altering and revocation of wills. It also explains personal representatives and how they should deal with a deceased person's estate and interpret and implement the will. Gifts may fail, estates may be insolvent or a person may die intestate, without a will at all. Increasingly relatives and others seek to challenge the will, for example on the grounds of the testator's capacity or under the law of family provision. This third edition is edited, updated and revised to take account of new legislation and case law across all the relevant issues, including a new final chapter dealing with the potentially contentious issues that are becoming more central to professional work in the field of succession.
