The law of succession is a rich and vibrant subject. It covers the law on wills and intestacy, probate and the administration of estates, and estate taxation. Given that this topic is a key component in the SQE1 and SQE2 exams, the law of succession is likely to grow further in importance and popularity amongst law students.

This textbook is designed to meet the needs of students studying on an undergraduate LLB programme or on any SQE training course by introducing them to succession law in a clear and succinct manner, whilst at the same time highlighting the many topics that are controversial and may be in need of reform. The textbook also explains key practical points, such as will drafting, applying for a grant of probate and calculating inheritance tax.

To aid learning, practical examples are provided, along with an in-depth look at some key cases.

This new edition of The Law of Succession has been fully revised and updated and includes:

  • key statutory, case law and tax developments over the past few years (including raising the marriage age to 18, and an end to the video-witnessing of wills)
  • new sections on several topics, including an expanded look at the duties of personal representatives
  • reference to the Law Commission’s Supplementary Consultation Paper on reform to will-making

Subjects:
Wills and Probate
