Why do you need an estate plan?

Here’s 13 reasons why:

  • Don't let the government decide who gets your things

  • Do all you can to make sure your kids will be raised as you intended, should the worst happen to you and your partner

  • Choose your preferred people to raise your children and look after their inheritance, should you die whilst they are still minors

  • Organise your affairs to provide for your kids throughout their childhoods and prevent unnecessary tax bills

  • Reduce paperwork for those left behind

  • Direct who gets your superannuation (yes, you need a separate document for this)

  • Prevent your Will being challenged by jilted lovers or family members

  • Ensure your medical wishes are respected and someone has your back if you become unable to make decisions

  • Let your family know any funeral or burial wishes

  • Deal with the effect of marriage on any previous Wills

  • Make sure that your de facto or same sex partner is treated the way you want

  • Second marriage? Blended family? No problem. Modern families are our thing

  • Ensure your digital assets end up where and how you want them
