| book description |

Ninety-three per cent of people who have made a will in the UK have not included any provision for their digital assets when they die. It is therefore vital that all practitioners involved in drafting wills and estate planning discuss with their clients what will happen to their digital estate on their death. This book explains the practical and legal aspects of planning for and administering a digital estate: * what constitutes a digital asset; * digital assets and the law; * how to consider digital assets when drafting wills; * dealing with digital assets after death; * the digitisation of wills and will signing; and * financial abuse and digital assets. The book provides guidance and precedents for dealing with digital assets when drafting wills and also covers issues such as the risks for solicitors, data security, access rights and valuing digital assets. A template for a digital assets inventory is also included.
