Why do I need a will and estate plan?
A will provides peace of mind that your wishes will be effected after you die. A will can also reduce potential conflicts between your family and friends regarding the administration and distribution of your estate. An effective estate plan considers all the assets and liabilities you control regardless of whether you hold the asset or liability in your personal capacity, in a family trust or self-managed super fund. It also ensures control of those assets are left with the people you choose and trust.
Estate planning looks at your family situation which may be blended or may involved estranged children. It will consider the tax consequences of your legacies and also consider who will manage your assets and make decisions about your lifestyle if you lost capacity to make those decisions for yourself.
