Download or read book The Law of Decedents Estates Including Wills written by John Gabriel Woerner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-10 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Decedents' Estates, Including Wills: An Abridgement for the Use of Law Students of J. G. Woerner's Great Treatise for Practitioners on "the American Law of Administration" This book, specially designed for use as a text-book in law schools, is an abridgment and condensation into a single volume of Judge J. G. Woerner's monumental work on The American Law of Administration. The editors, in lecturing upon the subject of wills and administration of decedents' estates, respectively in the law departments of Washington and St. Louis Universities, found no suitable text-book for students covering this field, which is of such practical and grow ing importance in a law course. The best plan devised was to lecture from Judge Woerner's book. But that great treatise is adapted to the' needs Of the practising lawyer and the courts, not to students. Though containing the fundamentals meces sary to a proper understanding of the subject by the student, it contains also a tremendous amount of matter, nicety of detail, and citation of authorities, all of which is indispensably valuable to the practitioner, but is only a source of confusion to the beginner. In the light of their experiences in teaching this subject, these editors therefore conceived the idea of elim inating all matter not essential from the elementary viewpoint, and otherwise so modifying the main treatise as to make it of special adaptation to the needs of the beginner and properly to ground him in this field of the law.

Book excerpt: Wills, Trusts, and Estates: The Essentials (“Essentials”) offers a sleek and slender presentation of wealth transfer law for an introductory law school course.

Download or read book Wills Trusts and Estates in Focus written by Naomi R. Cahn and published by Aspen Publishing. This book was released on 2019-02-04 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a typical Wills, Trusts, and Estates (WTE) class there are both students who want to practice in WTE (either exclusively, or as part of a general practice), and those who need only to master the general concepts in order to pass the bar exam. Wills, Trusts, and Estates in Focus by Naomi R. Cahn, Alyssa DiRusso, and Susan Gary attends to the needs of both sets of students. For those who will practice in WTE, the concepts are presented in an engaging way and exemplified by realistic hypothetical scenarios that mirror practice and support the development of lawyering skills. For those who need only to pass the bar, the organization of the text is keyed to multi-state essay examination topics as presented on the multi-state bar exam. The well-crafted pedagogy of the Focus Series makes WTE concepts and procedure clear and accessible for all students. Case Previews shed light on each succinctly-edited case, provide legal context, and direct students to the issue at hand. Post-Case Follow-Ups review the decision and prepare students to apply the relevant legal principles to the set of exercises that follow, called Real Life Applications. Professors will appreciate the accessible approach of Wills, Trusts, and Estates in Focus, which combines straightforward narrative explanations with real-world examples, and problems designed to engage students in active learning. Features of Wills, Trusts, and Estates in Focus: Insightful authorship: The author team consists of three well-known academics with expertise in WTE and complementary areas such as family law, charities, elder law, and tax.
