D. Shields A: Your All-in-One Manual to

Your All-in-One Manual to Living Trusts, Wills, Retirement, and Estate Planning

Simple, Actionable Guidance to Help You Plan for Retirement, Protect Your Estate, Reduce Legal Hassles, and Provide for Future Generations

Lloyd's Arbitration Law Library

This is the first and leading comprehensive guide to security for costs in international arbitration, including commercial and investment arbitration, providing a text which will be the key resource for those considering, making and ruling on applications for security for costs. It is the first and only work to consider the 40+ factors informing the discretion to award security for costs.The author begins with an introduction and description of the security of costs controversy in international arbitration, and then explains the developing approach of arbitral tribunals to applications for security for costs, with reference to decisions published by ICC and ASA, and statistics of LCIA and decisions of the UK courts when they had the power to grant security for costs in international arbitration. The book features an analysis of the reasons given for restricting security for costs in international commercial arbitration to 'exceptional circumstances' or similar. The author conveys discretionary factors taken into account by the courts and arbitral tribunals in considering applications for security for costs, special considerations for investor-state arbitrations, the correct approach to the exercise of the discretion, the manner of making and resisting applications, appropriate orders to be made on applications, and consequences of orders.This book is written for all arbitration practitioners around the world, including arbitrators ruling on applications. The work would be incidentally useful to litigation practitioners as it necessarily considers applications for security for costs in litigation.

Security for Costs in International Arbitration

Hart Studies in Private Law

This first book dedicated exclusively to the remedy of punitive damages combines empirical, historical and doctrinal analysis to illustrate the practical operation of the remedy, assessing its appropriateness. In part one, the author explores the law and its normative underpinnings. The second part provides an empirical survey of nearly 600 decisions delivered by courts at first instance and on appeal between 1964 and 2020 in England and Wales. The final part examines the main limitations on the availability of punitive damages in light of the normative basis of the remedy.

Trusts and Estates Law Handbook

This book looks at how the law allows donors to establish perpetual charitable trusts, bearing the donor's name, and how it rewards and encourages the pursuit of post-mortem identity. It considers the policy questions raised by post-mortem identity. The law in this area is often complex and uncertain, and that legal unpredictably might deter donors from giving. Attention to post-mortem identity suggests that the law should be made as reliable and predictable as possible. This book theorises the motivation for post-mortem identity and works through its legal implications. It considers the even deeper questions in play and the particular problems which surround post-mortem identity. For example, a donor motivated by the prospect of legal immortality might be led towards bad charity. The donor might try to create a vain or prejudiced organisation. The book looks at the context of these issues, the policy challenges faced by the law, and the way in which the rules need to control and limit the donor's wishes.

Charity Law and Post-mortem Identity

J.K. Lasser's New Rules for Estate, Retirement, and Tax Planning

Written in a straightforward, modern style and providing a comprehensive set of trust precedents this book is a value-adding reference work on key areas of trust law for private client practitioners. Containing a detailed discussion of administrative provisions, some of which are not generally dealt with in conventional textbooks on English trust law, it provides answers (with appropriate reasons and authority, where available) to a number of important questions for practitioners, such as: Are forfeiture clauses valid, and do automatic flee clauses work? How should a drafter provide for the trust's proper purpose, and would STAR trusts be recognised in other jurisdictions? How can one validly restrict a beneficiary's right to information and trust documents, and what indemnities should retiring trustees request from their successors? The Second Edition reflects important new case law (in the Cayman Islands, England and other leading trust jurisdictions), legislative changes, changes to drafting practice and includes fully updated precedents which are also supplied as an accompanying electronic download. The meaning and, where relevant, the source of each provision used in the precedents is explained in the book, with suggested wording for common alternative options, as well as discussions of some common drafting mistakes and traps to avoid. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Banking and Finance Law online service.

Landmark Cases

Part of the iconic Landmark Cases series, this book brings the most significant cases in charity law together for the first time. More than four hundred years have passed since the Statute of Charitable Uses of 1601, whose Preamble set out a list of charitable purposes which has formed the basis of the modern legal definition of charity. This book explores the substantial body of judge-made rules and principles developed since then, highlighting a carefully curated selection of the landmark cases which have shaped charity law. Each chapter analyses one or more judicial decisions, setting them in their historical context, explaining their contemporary importance, and considering their future relevance. The selected cases cover a broad range of topics. Some go to the heart of what it means to be a charity, elucidating charity's legal definition and public benefit requirement. Others demonstrate how charity law has been shaped by its interaction with other bodies of law, including trust law, company law and equality law, and by emerging tensions between trustees' overriding duty to further the charity's purposes and broader moral obligations or ethical considerations. The book has a core focus on English precedents, but the cases are touchstones in many jurisdictions. Our contributors therefore include scholars, judges and practitioners from Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Singapore, as well as from the UK. The result is a book that sheds new light on the application and development of charity law's defining rules and principles across the common law world.
