Description

Leave your family peace of mind with this new approach to wills and estates Whenever Elizabeth Arnold tells people her specialty, they usually share their own family dilemmas. Maybe Dad left behind a misguided or inadequate will. Maybe Aunt Sue nabbed the vase that wasn_x0092_t in Grandma_x0092_s will and Aunt Pat hasn_x0092_t spoken a kind word to her since. Maybe Sis can_x0092_t decide who should get the kids in case of a tragedy, so she doesn_x0092_t have any will at all. Such tales of woe have nothing to do with legal or tax problems. The real issues behind wills gone wrong_x0097_or wills that never get off the ground_x0097_are the human ones. Creating the Good Will tackles the important human dimensions that most books about wills fail to address. Arnold teaches her readers that wills are not just legal documents but also heartfelt emotional tools.
