Do You Need a Will?

Have you:

At Norwest Family Law, you will receive expert legal advice on how to prepare a legally binding Will, which is easy to understand and covers all necessary bases (such as the division of assets and finances, appointing the right Power of Attorney, the provision of medical care, risk management against potential future claims, and signing from witnesses).

Do you wish to contest a Will? If so, contact us for a free case review. You will find out if your case is viable and, if so, what legal action is available to you.

Making a Will

Whether your financial affairs are simple or complex, by having your Will drafted by an accredited legal specialist this will ensure:

Your Will is valid and compliant with the Succession Act 2006
The instructions laid out are easy to understand
Your assets and finances will fall into the right hands
The risk of family disputes is greatly reduced
The risk of someone contesting the Will is greatly reduced
Your beneficiaries will pay as little tax as reasonably possible

On top of this, you will have peace of mind knowing that your family and loved ones will be provided for when you are no longer around.

Updating Your Will

There are many times where you need to update your Will. For example, when you enter a new long-term relationship, go through a significant increase or decrease in your assets or liabilities, or establish a new business.

Whatever the reason, we can amend your existing Will to override old provisions, and put in place new ones that are up-to-date.

Contesting a Will

You may be able to challenge the validity of a Will if you have strong evidence to suggest:

The person who wrote the Will did not have the capacity to understand the terms of the Will at the time of you signing it.
The terms of the Will were due to outsider influence.
You were reliant on the deceased to provide financial support, or
The relationship you had with the deceased deserves a greater share of the assets than what you have originally been given
