Foundationally Framed:  This title provides a basic introduction to estates and future interests law.

The workbook walks the reader through each step of the analysis for each and every problem, providing a firm understanding of why the conveyance creates each particular interest.

Progressively Challenging:  The workbook begins with an analysis of the fee simple estate and builds sequentially toward more complicated interests and conveyances. The information proceeds from the simple to more complex, later problems building on the successful command of earlier material.

Organized and Helpful:  The workbook also contains an extensive glossary, numerous summary charts, and a set of review problems that test the reader’s developing mastery of the material.
