Estate planning is an essential, but all too often neglected part of life. Without a Will and appropriate estate plan, your family may end up in bitter and costly legal disputes over your estate. Without a good and thoroughly considered estate plan, when the time comes, your home, business and investments may not only end up in the wrong hands, but may be the subject of repeated disputes between family members, business partners or unconsidered beneficiaries. The legal costs of these disputes are normally paid from your estate and may substantially diminish the value of your estate to your beneficiaries.

Estate planning may also incorporate testamentary trusts for assets to be left to children or disabled beneficiaries, guardianship of children, powers of attorney and succession of business assets and partnerships. The legal implications of not having a Will that is up to date and reflects the changing circumstances of modern families and businesses, or not having a Will at all, can be enormous. An out of date Will may not adequately provide for family members or people who should be cared for by your estate after you have gone. Disgruntled beneficiaries may have no option but to take the matter to the Supreme Court of Western Australia to resolve. Not having a Will leaves the law of Intestacy to apply, and the Administration Act will determine who gets your assets, again often resulting in proceedings being commenced with Supreme Court of Western Australia.
We can provide advice and arrange and prepare comprehensive and up to date Wills and estate planning documents that not only reflect your wishes in a clear and concise way, but can also ensure a smooth transition of assets to the right beneficiaries. We also advise on the links between estate planning and superannuation.

David is also highly approachable which is important when dealing with lawyers. There are some lawyers who are so far up themselves that you hesitate to call them, but even though David is a brilliant lawyer, he is also very down to earth.
Les is a wonderful lawyer. He has an amazing grasp of the English language and is always polite and grounding to speak to. With Les there are never problems to which there aren't solutions. And he's always up for the challenge. More than this, and it may seem weird to say this, whenever I meet Les he makes me want to be a good man. He's a real humanitarian and inspires the best in me. For that reason I always look forward to seeing him again.
Les was very professional and always kept my interest at the forefront of his mind. He is thorough and clear in his communications. He is also very supportive and I like how he runs meetings, providing all the options and helping sort out which ones are for me.
I can honestly say that in complex commercial litigation matters, David demonstrates an uncanny ability to think clearly, out of the box, and he adopts a pragmatic and very cost-effective approach. This is especially the case in relation to fixed fee pricing.
The whole process was seamless. No hidden fees, with a fixed price given before engaging them. This gave me a very comforting peace of mind. Alana was a breath of fresh air, and making me feel very comfortable at all times. I have no hesitation in recommending Alana and her team to anyone for the excellent service and honesty.
