About this publication
This edition of Administration of Estates and Drafting of Wills follows the same practical and detailed step-by-step approach that has made it, for nearly thirty years, so indispensable to busy legal practitioners and candidate attorneys. It sets out, in chronological order, the steps to be followed in administering deceased estates, of both residents and non-residents. In addition, the effects of the Moseneke and Bhe cases and the establishment of service points are dealt with in this edition. Forms, standard documents and specimen letters have also been updated.
