Wills and Administration of Estates is an advanced module that is heavily tested in the SQE. You will have to learn how to draft valid wills and administer estates as a lawyer. You will also learn how to calculate inheritance tax, income tax, and capital gains tax. Unfortunately, this module is often ignored by UK law schools because not many lecturers are competent enough to teach those technical topics. That is why so many LLB graduates fail the SQE every year. As an experienced legal educator, we are here to fill this knowledge gap. Our high-performance law notes will equip you with all the essential concepts and accounting rules while bringing you an unparalleled learning experience.
