Description
Wills, Estates, and Trusts: Statutes, Cases, and Problems Michael K. Molitor ISBN 9781531026905
Wills, Estates, and Trusts: Statutes, Cases, and Problems offers a comprehensive and integrated treatment of estate planning law, covering all major doctrinal and practical areas essential to modern practice. The text addresses non-probate transfers; intestacy; family protections and the surviving spouse’s elective share; wills (including foundational principles as well as post-execution issues such as after-married spouses, after-born children, will contests, and revocation); trusts; federal gift and estate taxation; and estate planning strategies, including ethical considerations.
Each chapter is carefully structured around detailed learning objectives and includes numerous problem-based exercises designed for in-depth classroom discussion. These problems require students to analyze and apply statutory provisions and case law, reinforcing both doctrinal understanding and practical reasoning skills. A comprehensive teacher’s manual provides detailed explanations for all problems, along with additional instructional resources to support effective course delivery.
The textbook incorporates extensive coverage of the Uniform Probate Code, Uniform Trust Code, and other uniform statutes, while also grounding students in a rich body of judicial decisions. In addition, the online Core Knowledge for Lawyers assessment sets offer multiple-choice and essay questions—each accompanied by thorough explanations—allowing students to evaluate and strengthen their mastery of the material.
Taken together, this textbook equips students with a strong foundation in both the knowledge and analytical skills required of competent estate planning attorneys, making it an ideal resource for classroom instruction and professional preparation.

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.
