This text explains the everyday duties of paralegals in the areas of wills, trusts, and estate administration. It identifies the duties that a paralegal can perform under the supervision of an attorney when drafting a will or trust or assisting with the administration of a decedent's estate, and reviews related terminology and general principles. There are step-by-step instructions on various procedures, illustrated by sample drafts and executed forms. Current federal and state tax information and tax forms are also discussed. Learning features include cases, assignments, ethical discussions, and review questions. The text is written for paralegals but can be used by others, such as trust officers and personal representatives appointed to administer the estate of a deceased person.
