How to Administer an Estate: A Step-By-Step Guide for Families and Friends,
By
This review is from: How to Administer an Estate, fifth edition: A Step-by-Step Guide for Families and Friends (Paperback)
Even for a lawyer who does not practice in this area of law, this book is a must-see to help you get through the often times confusing area of probate. The book is well suited to the law in any state, and is especially helpful if you are the family member who gets handed the ball after a death in your family

Administer Estate,
This review is from: How to Administer an Estate, fifth edition: A Step-by-Step Guide for Families and Friends (Paperback)
This book directs a person who becomes an executor of an estate to follow a path that leads to probate court. I was looking for how to administer an estate when it was in a trust. I had to buy a different book to find the answers to my questions.
