Brighouse has been designed to help practitioners draft wills in clear succinct English. It supplies precedents covering the full range of situations met in daily practice helping practitioners create reliable sophisticated documents. Both full precedent documents are supplied and a range of alternative and supplementary precedent clauses for inclusion and building up into a will document. The work has been fully updated to reflect recent legislation, including the Civil Partnership Act 2004, the Gender Recognition Act 2004, the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and the Finance Act 2006. It also reflects further developments in respect of the pre-owned assets regime, stamp duty land tax, and other changes resulting from the trust modernisation project. It supplies practical drafting advice alongside clear precedents and provides both general and specific wills in plain modern English. All the precedents can easily be adapted to suit various situations.
