Estate Planning is more than a Will

To ensure that your wealth passes to your loved ones on your death, and you are safeguarded in the event of any incapacity, you need more than a Will. Your estate plan is like a rope, that needs to be strong when relied on. A Will is one important strand in the rope, but on its own can’t carry the weight of what needs to be done. See our range of estate planning services.

Ticking the right boxes

An estate plan covers off on all of the elements required to carry you and your family through. It consists of many ‘strands’. A strong estate plan ticks the following boxes:

  • A Will that is thorough and well drafted
  • Additional documents to govern assets not covered by the Will (such as superannuation, trust assets and many jointly held assets)
  • A tax effective strategy to save money for your estate and loved ones
  • A risk strategy against the increasing threat of an estate claim (by spouses, children and other eligible applicants)
  • Asset protection for the inheritance you leave to your beneficiaries, such as a testamentary trust in your Will, to secure your legacy
  • In the event of your incapacity, a robust strategy and thoroughly drafted documents, to protect you and your assets
