"...the section-by-section approach to the 1965 Act means that one can immediately turn up the answer to any query..." Wildy's Book News, 2003 Based on McGuire's seminal 1967 work, this new edition examines the Succession Act 1965 in detail and examines other related legislation which impacts upon succession, such as the Status of Children Act 1987 and the Divorce Act 1996. Each section of the 1965 Act (as amended) is set out in full, and followed by a detailed narrative commentary which explains the sections and examines how they have been interpreted by the courts. Appendices contain the relevant Probate Office, Superior Courts and Circuit Courts forms.
