You don't necessarily need a lawyer to probate an estate; you might only require the fourth edition of the British Columbia Probate Kit (Self-Counsel, 2015 $39.95) by Mary-Jane Wilson who has practiced law since 1987. All the required forms are included on a CD-ROM (in MS Word and PDF formats) with step-by-step instructions in keeping with the new Wills, Estates and Succession Act effective as of March 31, 2014. Wilson, of the firm Wilson Rasmussen, speaks on estate planning matters for the Continuing Legal Education Society of British Columbia and writes on estate issues for newspapers and magazines. 978-1-77040-270-6
