WILLS AND ESTATES

Please direct your thoughts to your estate. It doesn’t matter if you are old or young, single or married, or have children or grandchildren. There are several legal complexities when dealing with Wills and Estates, and we can help. We have assisted hundreds of people with their estate planning needs over the years. We have also helped many individuals administer the estates of their loved ones who have passed on.

Properly drafted documentation is essential to any estate plan. Most people know what a Will is, and how important it is to have one, however more people are learning about the importance of a Enduring Power of Attorney and Personal Directive. An Enduring Power of Attorney allows you to appoint someone to look after your property and financial matters if you are alive, but unable to do so yourself. A Personal Directive allows you to appoint someone to make health care decisions if you are alive, but unable to do so yourself. If these documents have not been prepared, and you become incapacitated, it may be necessary for someone in your family to go to Court to get an Order to allow them to deal with these matters. Not only is this expensive and time consuming, but the person appointed by the Court might not be who you would choose.

Our office is very experienced in dealing with Estate matters. We have assisted clients with the preparation of Court Applications for Grant of Probate or Grant of Administration. This can be a very complex procedure and we would be pleased to help assist you through the process.
