Executor's Commission

Claim for executor’s commission

As an executor of an estate, you may be able to claim costs for your efforts. We’ll guide you in preparing and submitting your application, and take care of the accounts and statements you’ll need.

Family Provision

Making a family provision claim

There are times when a will doesn’t satisfy all parties. In these instances, some family members can apply to have the terms of a will changed. Whether you are making a claim, or are an executor defending a claim, we can help.

Issues Between Beneficiaries & Executors

Advice and support for resolving issues

If you wish to contest a will, or need to defend a claim to vary a will, our caring and discreet team can advise you on your chances of success and help you get the best outcome.

Powers of Attorney & Guardianship

Prepare for your future, and protect your assets

Who will make financial, legal and lifestyle decisions on your behalf if you’re unable to? When we meet to discuss your will, we can discuss why, how and who to appoint as an Enduring Power of Attorney or Enduring Guardian.

Public notary

A public notary is able to witness signatures and certify copies of documents for use overseas. This includes personal documents, such as birth and marriage certificates, and university transcripts, or commercial documents such as company incorporations and loan agreements.

Trusts and Superannuation

A family trust can offer good asset protection benefits against creditors. Also, the trustee can usually distribute the income of the trust to the beneficiaries tax effectively.
