Our Services
Wills & Estate Planning Services
From a simple Will to complex testamentary trusts and estate disputes, we handle every aspect of estate planning with expertise and care. Every matter is handled personally — no junior lawyers, no outsourcing.
Wills
A valid, professionally drafted Will ensures your assets go to the people you choose. We prepare simple and complex Wills tailored to your circumstances.
Enduring Powers of Attorney
Appoint someone you trust to manage your financial and legal affairs if you lose capacity. An Enduring Power of Attorney is one of the most important documents you can have.
Advance Health Directives
Document your medical wishes in advance. An Advance Health Directive ensures your healthcare decisions are respected if you cannot speak for yourself.
Probate & Estate Administration
We guide executors through the probate process — from obtaining grants of probate to distributing the estate efficiently and correctly.
Contested Estates & Will Disputes
If you believe a Will is invalid or you have been unfairly excluded, we can advise on your rights and represent you in estate litigation.
Superannuation Death Benefits
Superannuation does not automatically form part of your estate. We advise on binding death benefit nominations to ensure your super goes where you intend.
Testamentary Trusts
A testamentary trust within your Will can provide significant tax advantages and asset protection for your beneficiaries — particularly for minor children.
Business Succession Planning
We help business owners plan for the future — ensuring your business interests are protected and transferred smoothly when the time comes.
Estate Planning Reviews
Life changes — marriage, divorce, new children, new assets. We review and update your estate plan to keep it current and effective.

Common Questions
Wills & Estates FAQ
Do I really need a Will?
If you die without a valid Will (intestate), Queensland's intestacy laws determine who receives your estate — which may not reflect your wishes. A Will ensures your assets go to the people you choose and can significantly reduce stress for your family.
How often should I update my Will?
You should review your Will after any major life event — marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, acquiring significant assets, or the death of a beneficiary or executor. We recommend a review every 3–5 years as a minimum.
What happens to my superannuation when I die?
Superannuation is not automatically part of your estate. Without a binding death benefit nomination, your super fund trustee decides who receives your super. We can advise on binding nominations to ensure your super goes where you intend.
Can a Will be challenged in Queensland?
Yes. In Queensland, eligible persons — including spouses, children, and dependants — can make a Family Provision Application if they believe they have been inadequately provided for. We advise both executors defending estates and claimants seeking provision.
What is the difference between an Enduring Power of Attorney and a general Power of Attorney?
A general Power of Attorney ceases to operate if you lose mental capacity. An Enduring Power of Attorney continues to operate — or comes into effect — when you lose capacity, which is precisely when you need it most.
