Few tasks are as daunting as
settling an estate. Yet somebody--usually a relative or friend-- has to
do it for every person who dies. The person to whom the job falls often
faces a seemingly impenetrable maze.
This book is designed to
guide that person through the process as simply and easily as possible.
It offers step-by-step instructions for settling estates from the simple
to the complex. It also provides tips for choosing lawyers and
accountants, if they are needed, as well as for keeping accurate
records. A final chapter explains what to do to assure that your own
estate is settled according to your wishes and in the easiest way.
