Our experienced estate planning lawyers have a deep understanding of the intricacies of Victorian estate law and a proven track record of providing personalised solutions tailored to our clients’ unique circumstances.
We are able to help you with all aspects of estate planning, from advising you on the best structure to setting it all up.
Drafting or Updating Your Will
From simple, standard wills to more complex wills, our team will help you draft a legally sound will that accurately reflects your wishes regarding the distribution of your assets, appointment of executors, and guardianship of minor children, and will stand up to legal challenges.
Trust Creation and Administration
Our lawyers can advise you on the creation and management of different types of testamentary trusts depending on your needs, such as discretionary and special needs trusts. We can also provide guidance on the appointment of trustees and the proper administration of trusts.
Probate and Estate Administration
If you are in charge of administering an estate, our lawyers can assist you with the probate process, which involves validating the will, identifying and inventorying assets, paying debts and taxes, and distributing assets to beneficiaries. We provide both advisory services as well as complete probate management, taking care of the whole process for you.
Will Disputes (Contest)
If you feel you have been unjustly left out of a will, we can help. Our lawyers are able to advise you in the likelihood of your will dispute being successful and assist you with making the claim. We can also help you defend a will against a claim.
Estate Disputes & Litigation
Whether you wish to make a claim against an estate or you are defending a claim against an estate, we are able to help you with all estate disputes and litigation.
Estate Tax Planning
Our estate lawyers can provide guidance and advice to minimise estate tax liabilities through various strategies, such as gifting, establishing tax-efficient trusts, or utilising exemptions and deductions available under the tax laws.
If you need to give someone authority to act on your behalf, you need a Power of Attorney. We are here to help you establish a power of attorney and advise you in order to ensure you make the right decision as to who to give the power to and how to do it properly.
Deceased Estates
If you are dealing with a deceased estate or need to administer it, we are here to help. We can ensure that the process is completed correctly and if any issues arise, we will help you to resolve them.
