Wills and powers of attorney
Our experienced team can create wills that are tailored to meet your objectives including:
- standard provisions when a simple approach meets your needs
- discretionary testamentary trusts when you wish to provide your beneficiaries with additional asset protection or tax advantages or both
- protective trusts where you have concerns about your loved one's ability to manage their finances
- special disability trusts which can retain eligibility to a disability support pension for your vulnerable beneficiary
- life interests or capital protected trusts where you want to provide income from an asset or a right of residence for a loved one for a period of time and then have the capital going to someone else.
We can also prepare powers of attorney for you so that you can appoint who can legally make financial, personal and medical treatment decisions for you in the event that you do not have capacity to make these decisions.
