Sinopsis

Disputes over control of a body or ashes, and the arrangements for funerals or headstones/memorials are not encountered on a daily basis in practice, but when they do appear, it is usually at the 11tháhour, with clients needing advice at very short notice due to imminent burials or cremations.This practical guide aims to provide the busy practitioner with the knowledge required to provide advice so that the necessary steps can be taken quickly.áThe book covers the issues of who has the right to call for possession of the body, who can decide as to where bodies should be buried, ashes scatter or interred, and who has the final say over gravestones or memorials.ABOUT THE AUTHORNicola Phillipson TEP is a private client barrister at Parklane Plowden Chambers in Leeds whose practice encompasses probate and inheritance disputes.áNicola also sits as a Recorder and a Deputy District Judge on the North Eastern Circuit, and is a full member of STEP (Society of Trusts and Estate Practitioners).
