To help those making their simple online Will, understand the terminology used in Estate Planning there has been a comprehensive list of the main word descriptions, and action areas independently gathered and collated from a compilation of readily available information.

The short sections that this contains clearly describe the majority of areas that will merit understanding by the potential will-maker, however for larger estates it should be understood that neither this website nor that handbook compilation address the subject of estate tax planning.
