Their commentary covers the full range of practical concerns that underpin trust drafting, and highlights the possible problems practitioners may encounter, from coast to coast. In addition, the volume contains a comprehensive collection of skilfully crafted precedents that will be invaluable to lawyers and will help them avoid making potentially costly mistakes. The precedents adopt a drafting style which reads simply and naturally, and are complemented by extensive insightful explanations. The precedents are included on a CD that accompanies the book and that makes searching for the relevant forms more efficient and effective." --publisher's description.
