Succession Law Essentials

Frankie McCarthy, Duncan Adam

This book provides a concise yet comprehensive guide to the law of succession in Scotland.

Since the first edition in 2013, a number of significant legal developments have occurred, including the Succession (Scotland) Act 2016, the Burial and Cremation (Scotland) Act 2016 and the Trusts and Succession (Scotland) Act 2024. The new edition provides an up-to-date statement of the law, incorporating key cases and discussion of potential further reform.

The new edition also includes expanded material on executry and consideration of some novel issues in succession including the treatment of digital assets within the law.

The reader will benefit from the explanation of difficult concepts in clear, easy-to-follow language and will find the book an accessible entry point to (or useful refresher in respect of) the law of succession.
