Everyone needs a Will. Without one you can almost guarantee that lawyers will be involved and tens of thousands of dollars of your wealth will go the the lawyers if someone decides they should have received more than the law states they get. However, this can be largely avoided by you having a Will, a properly drafted Will that considers your specific circumstances. Our Wills are reasonably priced; they are not expensive. Once we do your Will, you have a lawyer for life. We will always be here for you.
A properly drafted Will should expressly clearly what you want done with your wealth and who should inherit it. It should also consider how Life Insurance and Superannuation should be dealt with. A Will and Estate Planning Advice, should also cover the different tax consequences and how to avoid or eliminate the taxes so that more of your wealth goes to your loved ones. This is a combination of Legal knowledge, and Finance knowledge. At times a lawyer might recommend you obtain the advice from a Financial expert – however, the solicitor still needs to know of all the Financial Planning issues and how they fit into a Will. This is called Estate Planning. The combination of Legal knowledge and Finance knowledge.
The complexity of Estate Planning increases when there are blended families, Trusts, Companies Business. Many people are in blended families and for these people there is never a more important time to do a Will.
