A well‑crafted Will
Your will appoints an executor to manage your estate and sets out who receives your assets. We draft with clarity to reduce the risk of confusion or disputes, and we can include guardianship provisions for minor children.
Enduring Power of Attorney (Financial & Personal)
This lets someone you trust make decisions about money, property and personal matters if you lose capacity—so bills can be paid, property managed and day‑to‑day life continues.
Appointment of Medical Treatment Decision‑Maker
Should you become unable to make health decisions, this appointment ensures a person you trust can speak with your doctors and make decisions consistent with your values.
Testamentary Trusts
For many families, a testamentary trust can help manage inheritances for young or vulnerable beneficiaries, add a layer of protection if your children later separate from partners, and provide tax flexibility.
