As legal specialists, we are pleased to assist clients in all matters relating to wills and estate planning, estate administration and litigation. Our practice also covers many areas of property law.
Wills and Estate Planning
Estate planning extends far beyond the will itself and includes enduring Powers of Attorney, Appointments of Enduring Guardian and Advance Health Care Directives.
A properly prepared will and estate plan assists with the administration of your estate and can reduce the potential for disputes following your death.
Probate and Estate Administration
We can assist you with an application for a Grant of Probate and guide you through the complexities of the administration and distribution of a deceased estate.
If someone has died without a will or executor in place, our team can step you through the procedures necessary to obtain a Grant of Letters of Administration and successfully finalise the estate.
Estate litigation
Legal advice is required when a dispute arises in relation to a will or the administration of a deceased estate. We can assist with disputes regarding:
- Validity of a will, including the testamentary capacity or undue influence of the deceased.
- Estate administration and distribution.
- Construction of a will.
- Family provision claims.
- Ongoing administration of trusts.
Property
