"Where There's a Will, There's a Way," by Madeline Gauthier. This brief book should be a staple in the office of every attorney and accountant. In fact, anyone who does financial or estate planning should make this book available to their clients; either loan it to them or give them a copy to keep.
This planning guide is written so that the person on the street can read and understand it. That's more than you can say for the tax code.
Do your clients and yourself a favor, stock up on this book.
