Wills, Probate and Executors: Not All Evil

by Pauline G. Dembicki

Welcome to our 2018 edition of Wills, Probate and Executors. This practical guide covers three basics of estate Wills, Probate and Executors. Wills are a set of instructions about who will inherit your Beatles' albums after you head to that big rock concert in the sky. In a will you can nominate the person in charge, the executor. The Executor's job is to collect your assets, wrap up all the financial loose ends and pay out inheritance. The Probate Court oversees certain decedent's estates. After you read this book, you may agree that planning is not difficult. The whimsical cover is a sign that this is not written in lawyer party of the third part language, but in clear English. It is designed to be read in a few hours so you can start your plan. Note that forms are not included.

About the author

For nearly forty years, I've practiced law in the Chicago area. While it is an honor to help people through a crisis, I'd like to encourage everyone to plan for their estate in case you can't find a way to take it with you.

My books are in plain English, it's organized in a question-and-answer format. A dictionary is included at the end for reference.

I have always thought about writing a law dictionary. Now it is in the draft stages. It is about Probate Terminology.

My books are written under Illinois law.
