Synopsis:

This is a highly practical guide to making claims under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependents) Act 1975 when inadequate provision has been made for dependents in a will. It concisely explains law and procedures, enabling the practitioner to quickly assess the merits of a potential claim and to know what steps to take in progressing one. It also covers the implications of proceeding with a claim and the likely impact on social security benefits. The work is structured chronologically to take the practitioner step by step through a claim. The first section provides an explanation of the law, and this is followed by practice and procedure guidelines, containing everything needed to prepare a case and instruct a barrister. * Covers the whole process - from assessing a potential claim through to practice and procedure * Chronological structure makes it extremely easy to consult * Provides concise, practical explanations rather than heavyweight academic analysis * Includes questionnaires to help the practitioner gather all the necessary information for a claim * Contains all relevant legislation, rules, orders and forms * Features a set of concise case summaries and a list of leading cases by subject area
