Opis

All the basics that students need to know about succession in Scots law
What happens after you die? You can't take it with you, so succession law governs how your property is passed on after your death. Succession Law Essentials teaches you all you need to know about the Scots laws of succession, including estates, executors, wills, will substitutes, valid and invalid testimony, intestate succession, legacies, vesting and more.
Summary sections of Essentials Facts and Essential Cases will help you to identify, understand and remember the key elements. When you're revising for your exams, the tables of cases and statutes will help you to find the page you're looking for quickly and easily.
