Description

LexisNexis AnswerGuide New York Surrogate’s Court is topically organized and procedurally driven with descriptively-titled section headings and checklists for ease of research. It cites seminal cases and precise references to codes and court rules. LexisNexis AnswerGuide New York Surrogate’s Court also directs the user to in-depth analysis and forms coverage via “Practice Resources” in each section. References to titles such as Warrens’ Heaton on Surrogates’ Courts, the authority cited most often by the Surrogates themselves, and Bender’s Forms for the Civil Practice, which includes all official forms of the New York Surrogate’s Court, take the user directly to a relevant section or form. LexisNexis AnswerGuide New York Surrogate’s Court also provides access to public records (e.g., locating an out-of-state beneficiary) by way of sample online searches easily modified to suit the user’s needs.

The title is replete with checklists and features 170 practice pointers—Strategic Point, Timing, Warning, and Exception—that ensure best practices and help avoid practice pitfalls.
