Review of Do I Need a Will or a Trust
[Following is a volunteer review of "Do I Need a Will or a Trust" by Taylor Willingham.]
Do I Need a Will or a Trust is a magnificent piece of work, a masterpiece to be precise. Taylor Willingham is an estate planning attorney living in the United States. He writes this book to answer a question most people have asked him, which is his title Do I Need a Will or a Trust? I must say, I also didn't know the difference between a will and a trust. I suppose you too must be as curious as I was about this subject, what are you waiting for then? Get yourself the book Do I Need a Will or a Trust and get thoroughly informed. Taylor Willingham starts off with an example of how poor choices and plans on succession can be disastrous to those you leave behind. Marcus Aurelius Antoninus was one of the greatest emperors the Roman empire had ever seen. He made great accomplishments during his reign. For all the great feats Marcus accomplished during his lifetime, he had one major failure: he chose an unfit successor, his son Commodus. While Marcus Aurelius was a distinguishably stoic philosopher and chaste leader, Commodus was nothing like him. The reign of Commodus was so terrible that the Roman empire never recovered from his reign. Taylor leaves a moral lesson at the end of his brief story, challenging you to make proper plans so that when you are deceased your loved ones do not live in anguish.
Taylor Willingham's style of writing is unique, genius and magnificent. He writes in a demandingly enthralling way. He uses long and easy to comprehend sentences, with a wide variety of vocabularies on legal terms. I love the way he uses a casual tone all through the book, making me feel at ease with the legal terms he shoots my way occasionally. If it were not written this way, perhaps I would have stopped reading the book Do I Need a Will or a Trust on the first page. I love it even more how Taylor Willingham uses memes appropriately in his various subtopics. He undoubtedly has a great sense of humor. With all these, he still maintains a "down to business" mood in his writing. It's an amazing combination.
I find the examples Taylor gives in his book Do I Need a Will or a Trust very relatable and educative. His examples make me comprehend how some actions we do affect us or people around us legally, when it comes to property transfer. For instance, I believe Mrs. Beth's situation is very relatable to many women all around the world. Her decedent husband had a child before he met her but he never told her about it. Mrs. Beth's in-law sister brings up the issue, when the decedent's property is being legally allocated to the legally rightful heirs. Since Mrs. Beth had not planned for this, it really disadvantages her as the property she was to be allocated is significantly reduced. You can learn from Mrs. Beth's story and set things right early enough.
You must have heard a conversation with your lawyer at one point, or maybe you do keep in touch with your lawyer for various reasons. And it's not just about a lawyer but anyone who practices the law and offers legal services. Do you find the terms he or she uses quite confusing? Taylor Willingham addresses this in his book and even aligns each term with its simple meaning for your easy understanding. After reading Do I Need a Will or a Trust, I doubt you'll have any question about the whole subject of property transfer. The book has every answer you need on the same subject.
I did not find anything to dislike about the book Do I Need a Will or a Trust. I found one grammatical error while reading the acknowledgment. I did not find any other error all through the book. Do I Need a Will or a Trust is professionally edited. Enthusiasts of non fiction books will love this book. I loved the book a lot, that one error doesn't change anything about the greatness of this book. I rate it 4 out of 4 stars.
