Master the basics of administering assets in modern equity practice with clear, practical guidance.

This concise guide explains how estates are handled, who pays what, and how to navigate changes in law that affect trustees, executors, and beneficiaries.

This edition focuses on the administration of assets after death, including how the Land Transfer Act reshapes the role of legal representatives and how claims are advertised and settled. It covers priorities for paying debts, the shift of primary liability for mortgage debts, and the practical steps trustees must take to manage, protect, and distribute assets.

How assets are classified and applied when someone dies, including the distinction between legal and equitable assets.
The order of priority for debts and how certain statutes and bonds affect distributions.
What changes the Land Transfer Act brought to trustees and executors, and how to handle new or replacement trustees.
Practical rules on payment into court, claims, and settlement of debts under the Trustee Acts.

Ideal for readers of modern equity practice, this edition helps students and practitioners understand the administration process with grounded, real‑world guidance.
