Our team of experts can assist with the following personal asset planning projects:
Wills
Making sure you have a well-drafted will is crucial to safeguarding your assets and looking out for your children. It’s important to update your will regularly to make sure it keeps up with changes in your life, especially after big events like having a child or going through a separation.
Enduring powers of attorney
If you reach a point where you can’t make your own decisions, someone you appoint with enduring power of attorney can make those decisions for you. Our North Shore lawyers can explain how this works and help you choose the right person to appoint as your attorney.
Trusts
Setting up a trust is a great way to safeguard your personal assets. It can shield them from relationship property claims, creditors, and estate related disputes. Our family trust lawyers will assist you in establishing your trust, ensuring all legal requirements are met along the way.
