Estate Planning

Securing a comfortable future for your family requires careful preparation. Planning how your assets are distributed after your death will maximise the level of security you achieve for your family.

Taylor & Scott are experienced estate planners. Evelyn Gardis believes estate planning involves more than just drafting a Will and nominating a Power of Attorney (a person who can make legal decisions on your behalf if you become incapacitated).

Preparing an estate plan to manage the succession of your estate is vital to ensure your estate is passed onto your beneficiaries in the most appropriate and efficient way possible.

Taylor & Scott's lawyers have the experience to guide you through your estate options and explain in plain language everything you need to know about planning your estate – from writing or changing a will, setting up trusts, and establishing a Power of Attorney.

Our experienced lawyers can ensure you receive the right advice so your estate is shared only among those you have chosen as beneficiaries and offer advice regarding adequate provision for your spouse and children, or for any former spouse or any dependants.

Taylor & Scott's legal team covers all areas of wills and estate law:

  • Drafting and changing wills
  • Drafting and advising on Powers of Attorney and appointment of enduring Guardian
  • Applying for probate and letters of administration
  • Assisting executors and administrators of an estate
  • Representing executors and beneficiaries of estates
  • Contesting of wills and estates.

Taylor & Scott has the experience, knowledge and expertise to ensure your estate is managed just as you intended.
