Wills & Estates

A will makes sure your property goes to the people you choose, and names who will look after it.

We help with: wills, powers of attorney, appointing a medical treatment decision maker, probate, and disputes about a will.
Good to know: getting married usually cancels an existing will in Victoria. Separation or divorce can also affect it, so review your will after any big life change.
Bring: a list of what you own and owe, and the names of the people you want to benefit.
Cost: simple will $385.
