Wills and Estate planning
We bring many years of experience, offer fixed fee services for probate, letters of administration, transfer of property in deceased estates and advice on what to do if there is no will.
It is risky to assume too much about what happens when you’re gone. If you take the time to make an effective and legally binding Will, you can save your family not only stress but also money in what will undoubtedly be one of the most difficult times of their lives.
We are experts in providing legal advice for all matters relating to wills and estate planning. We can also advise you in relation to deceased estate administration and probate.
Write a will that carries out your intentions
We can advise you on:
choosing executors for your will, and attorneys for your Enduring Power of Attorney.
strategies to minimise the risks that your estate is contested and subjected to litigation
asset protection strategies and wealth management mechanisms
superannuation and joint assets as part of your estate planning
Estate planning includes not only your Will, but also dealing with the event of you losing the capacity to make decisions about your affairs. You can plan for these situations by putting in place an Enduring Power of Attorney. This kind of planning is essential to the everyday person to ensure you and your family are protected in situations of tragedy and difficulty.
This planning ensures that if you somehow become unable to make decisions about your finances, your medical treatment or living arrangements then the person or persons who you trust to make these decisions can do so unhindered.
We can also discuss with you if an Advance Health Directive should form part of your succession planning if having control over end of life decisions is important to you.
