When Someone Dies in Arizona

"When Someone Dies in Arizona" is a uniquely organized book, written in layman's language. It is easy to skip all the sections that do not concern you and readily find the ones that do. The GUIDE POSTS and GLOSSARY are most helpful. There are many suggestions of what all needs to be done after a death. All this gives one the incentive to take care of organizing everything with complete written instructions on what to do, whom to call, and how to proceed to relieve the survivors of much of the headache afterwards. The book should be read "before someone dies in Arizona". I had a few questions that didn't get answered but realized that laws change frequently and to quote figures on rates or costs would not be real practical. One thing I have put in my list to survivors that I did not find in the book is "Cancel paper & magazine subscriptions, nursing home policies and pre-paid annual dues to get refunds". One thing not made clear to me in this book was what happens when the husband and wife have a daughter on their bank accounts. It made clear that it does not count towards probate, but does not make clear whether those accounts would be included in the estate tax.I found this book from searching for books (and even government pamphlets) that are specific on rules of probate and estate taxes. I found none, thus this book proved to be a happy choice for a starting point. I would recommend the book to every person in Arizona (or any state for that matter), for there are two things we can count on -- death and taxes, and this book covers it all.
