u003cpu003eThe interplay of succession laws in Europe has always been complex. The EU Succession Regulation has been fully effective since the summer of 2015 and has changed the landscape for succession in most of the EU. Brexit has not changed its impact in the UK or elsewhere and the Regulation affects the estates of any person dying a national of or domiciled in an EU country, or who has previously been resident there or with assets there. This book attempts to look at the subject from the perspective of a practitioner outside the EU, address some of the various topics that may be relevant and attempt to give some answers to the many questions that remain, with an eye to both the novice and the experienced private international lawyer.u003c/pu003e u003cpu003eu003cbru003eu003c/pu003e u003cpu003eABOUT THE AUTHORu003c/pu003e u003cpu003eu003cbru003eu003c/pu003e u003cpu003eRichard Frimston is a solicitor and consultant with Russell-Cooke LLP in London and former partner and head of their private client group.
