Our Wills and Estates Services
Testamentary Trusts
Creating a Testamentary Trust within your Will can often be a very effective strategy for you and your family, rather than gifting the assets directly.
Power of Attorney
You should instruct your lawyer to draft an Enduring Power of Attorney for you at the same time as you make a Will, to ensure that the right people can step in for you to assist with financial and legal decision making if you lose capacity.
