Ensure your Will is current with Wakefield Vogrig & Boote Lawyers

-

Often people make a Will when they purchase their first home, get married, or have children.

Life then goes on, but how often is that Will reviewed and updated?

Wills can often be left untouched for decades.

The older the Will, the more likely it is to create issues with the smooth and effective administra­tion of your Estate.

Even more concerning, many adults don’t have a Will at all.

It is good practice to update your Will every five or so years, or whenever a major event occurs in your life.

Examples of major events in life that can affect your Will are:

Have you married or separated?

Have you started or ended a de facto rela tionship?

Are your named Executors still the right people to look after your affairs?

Have your children become adults?

Has a family member died?

Are the gifts you made still in existence? Have you since acquired multiple proper ties?

Have you received an inheritanc­e of your own?

They pride themselves on providing a personalis­ed service, to understand your family and asset situation well.
