It’s February already but now that the kids are back to school and we settle back into our ‘’new normal’’ routines, the new year begins in earnest
Estate planning is the process of ensuring that your wealth is directed according to your wishes after you die. Making sure your wealth goes where you want it to is not just as simple as preparing a will – although a will is a key part of your estate planning. You also need to consider things such as your superannuation benefits, family businesses, assets owned by legal entities such as family trusts as well as assets owned as joint tenants, etc.
We can assist you in some of these areas and can refer you to a specialist solicitor for more specialised legal advice. Estate planning is an integral part of holistic financial planning, to ensure that your affairs are handled as per your wishes in an effective manner, both now and in the future.
