Introduction and Disclaimer

This is a free resource containing reference material referred to in my Drafting Trusts and Will Trusts which is not widely available. I am very grateful to authors and publishers for permission to put it on this website. The material is not guaranteed to be error free, either in content or in its presentation. On the contrary, I guarantee it will contain some errors! I hope that these will not spoil the general usefulness of this resource for those wishing to research the law in more detail, but no responsibility whatever is accepted for its use.
