Wills and Estates Lawyers on the Gold Coast and Northern NSW

WILLS

CJM Lawyers take pride in dealing with matters with the highest level of professionalism, respect and sensitivity. The creation of a legally binding will is one of the most important matters that an individual can action. This document will ensure that your assets, distribution of investments and family heirlooms are reflective of your wishes. If younger children are involved, your will can also address their care arrangements and provide for their future needs.

Establishing a will ensures clear and consistent communication between all family members and people involved in your managing your estate. It will establish the boundaries to ensure no conflict or tension occurs regarding the distribution of your assets, estate and financial benefits. It is also a safe platform if you wish to make a provision to charity.

START PLANNING

This is a time that you consider how you would like your assets, estate and investments cared for. CJM Lawyers take the stress and apprehension away from this process and will guarantee that your will is a direct reflection of your wishes. We provide complete and overall advice about your rights and the obligations of the people mentioned in your will, such as the Executor, Trustee Testamentary Guardian as well as potential beneficiaries.

In this time, discretion and sensitivity are of the utmost priority. Enabling CJM Lawyers to deliver the support and assistance required throughout this process will benefit all involved and provide you and your loved ones with peace of mind.

CHALLENGING A WILL

A Will requires a grant of probate to be exercised by the executor to act in accordance with the instructions of the Will. You may challenge a Will by arguing the Will’s validity, which can be for a variety of reasons, often due to revocation, testator’s lack of capacity, undue influence or fraud. The court determines this issue by granting or refusing to grant probate of the Will, or revoking an existing grant.

Please note that each State of Australia has separate laws that govern this area of law, and we hold pride in our extensive speciality over Wills & Estates Law in Queensland and New South Wales. If you are in any doubt we would be more than happy to discuss your concerns and take your burdens into our capable hands.

You may also challenge a Will by making an application for further and better provision from the Estate in the event you do not agree with how the Estate is to be distributed. We note QLD and NSW legislation differ in their approach to challenges to the Estate.
