Why you need a well drawn will
Making a Will is so important, yet we tend to put it off. It involves admitting our mortality, and often making difficult decisions. It is one of those things that we will get around to “one day”.
You should not put it off any longer, and you should seek expert advice.
What would happen to your property if something happened to you?
If you have no will, the law makes some provision for what will happen, but it does not cover many circumstances that might arise. If you have a simple will, more situations will be covered, but many may not be.
All of the concerns below can be addressed by a will skilfully drawn by practitioners who practice primarily in wills and estates.
We can draw your will to maximise the chances that your estate will be protected and your wishes will be able to be followed, regardless of what might happen.
WHAT IF...
You have an under-age child. Who would take care of your child? Where would your child live? What would happen to the family home? What about the child’s education? What if the child needs access to money?
What if...
You have a child with a disability and with personal needs that only you can understand. How can you ensure that those needs will be met and that your child’s personal wishes and preferences will be respected when you are no longer there?
What if...
One of your intended beneficiaries is financially irresponsible. How can you ensure that what you leave that beneficiary will not squandered or mis-spent?
What if...
You, your partner and your children all die in the same accident. Would you want all of your combined assets passing entirely to your family or to your partner’s family, to the exclusion of the other?
What if...
A beneficiary is insolvent (goes broke) at the date of your death. Will the property left to that beneficiary pass instead to the beneficiary’s creditors?
What if...
You have a pet. How can you ensure that it will be cared for?
What if...
There are children from a previous relationship. What difficulties might arise? How should this situation be addressed?
What if...
A beneficiary is subject to matrimonial proceedings at the date of your death. Will the property left to that beneficiary pass instead to the estranged spouse?
What if...
A beneficiary might be eligible for a government benefit. How can the will be drawn so as to maximise any government benefits the beneficiary will receive?
