ABOUT

Our LLB Answered Equity & Trusts Core Guide tells you EXACTLY what you need to know to smash your studies, without all the additional waffle that lecturers throw at you. Our guide breaks down key concepts into bite-sized, easy-to-understand chunks.

Examiners want you to answer questions in a certain manner – but other textbooks and manuals only tell you the law, rather than showing you how to apply it for exam success. That’s why our Core Guide includes structured answers and essay plans that take you through the law and show you how to apply it, step-by-step, so you are 100% ready for your studies.

Our 7th edition of the LLB Answered Equity & Trusts Core Guide has been comprehensively updated by qualified solicitors with new chapters, fresh cases, and feedback from qualified lawyers, lecturers, and students from a number of different universities. Fully updated for the 2023-24 academic year, this is a MUST-HAVE guide for all LLB students.

WHICH VERSION SHOULD I BUY?

We know that everyone learns differently, which is why we have created different ways for you to use our guides:

1. Our printed guide is our original printed book. All topics are printed in greyscale, with full-colour covers to protect your guide, and thick card tabs to help you quickly navigate between topics. Our printed guides use a wiro binding to ensure that your guide sits flat on the table. This is perfect for you if like to have an actual book to take to lectures, make notes in, and tab up for your exams.

2. Our loose-leaf guide comes pre-hole punched (4 holes), ready for you to place directly into your own folder. If you like to create your own notes, but don’t have the time to copy out large sections of textbook (who does, right?!)… this is PERFECT for you! The hole punched guide allows you to integrate your notes directly into your own notes and gives you the flexibility to re-order our subjects to suit your personal needs. Please note that this version does not include tabs or covers.

3. Our MyLiveBook Interactive e-Book allows you to access your guide directly from your laptop, phone, or tablet. You can highlight, annotate, add photos and search your guide both online and offline. Links within the books allow you to quickly jump between topics. This is perfect for students you if you like to work on one (or multiple) devices rather than on paper, or if you like to work on the go.

4. The blended learning pack is our creme-de-la-creme way to learn! This includes both a wiro-bounded printed guide sent direct to your house, and immediate online access via our MyLiveBook Interactive e-Book! Alternatively - if you prefer to create your own notes, we offer the blended pack as our loose-leaf guide with MyLiveBook Interactive e-Book access. The ultimate way to ensure that you always have access to your notes, whether sat at your desk, or on the go!
