Description
Florida Wills Trusts and Estates Cases and Materials 5th Edition 9781531028794 & 9781531032913
Building on the success of its previous editions, the fifth edition of Florida Wills, Trusts, and Estates continues its innovative approach by covering trusts as extensively as wills. This edition presents modern trends in wills, trusts, and estate planning and includes discussions of newly enacted laws, such as the Florida Uniform Directed Trust Act and the Florida Community Property Trust Act.
It also addresses recent statutes related to the forfeiture of rights in cases of elder abuse or abuse of disabled adults. Although the focus is on Florida law, the casebook also explores laws from other states and uniform acts approved by the Uniform Law Commission.
To encourage students to approach wills, trusts, and estates issues from both planning and litigation perspectives, the authors include numerous questions that require students to think about drafting or planning to avoid litigation while achieving client goals. This casebook is intended for basic wills and trusts courses but is also suitable for advanced courses, as it includes chapters on estate planning, powers of appointment, advanced directives, and probate.
The rules governing wills and trusts are primarily driven by state law. The authors' philosophy is that students gain critical insights into complex issues by studying the laws of one jurisdiction as a whole. Florida law serves as an ideal platform for this approach due to its extensive probate and trust codes and significant case decisions addressing current and cutting-edge issues.

Shipping & Returns
-
Fast, standard shipping
Most students receive their books in 3 to 9 business days.
-
Free rental returns, whenever you are done
Print a prepaid return label from your account whenever you have finished with the book, and drop it at the carrier listed on the label. Returning early costs you nothing: it is the same free label, and sending it back sooner is welcome. Just be sure it reaches us by the semester deadline to avoid late fees.
-
Purchase returns: 15% restocking fee
Purchases can be returned within 30 days in the condition you received. We will email a prepaid return label; once we receive your book, we refund the purchase price minus the 15% restocking fee and the return label cost. Original shipping is non-refundable.
-
Shipping costs calculated at checkout
Real-time rates are quoted at checkout based on your address and the books in your cart. Returning your book is always free.
Rental Terms
Return by December 28, 2026 for Fall 2026 rentals.
- Late Fees
- Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price, for each copy that is overdue. The rent you have already paid counts toward the book's replacement value (its Brand New price), so late fees stop once your rent plus late fees reach it. That replacement value is the most a rental can ever cost you. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
- Damage Fees
- Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
- Return Shipping
- Returning your book is free: print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page, whether you send it back early or on the semester deadline. Cancelling a shipped rental for a refund is different: there, the return label cost comes out of your refund.
- 30-Day Cancellation
- Changed your mind? Cancel an active rental within 30 days of your order from My Account → My Rentals. Cancel before your book ships and it’s free; once it has shipped, we refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable.
