Who Will Look After Your Loved Ones

Who Will Look After Your Loved Ones If the Unexpected Happens?

Have you thought about who would care for your children if you were to pass away? Or who

would make decisions on your behalf if you were left mentally incapacitated due to an

accident or illness?

These are difficult questions — but they’re important ones. At Equilaw, our compassionate

and experienced team is here to help you find the answers and put the right protections in

place.

Preparing or updating your Will doesn’t have to be a complex or time-consuming process.

But it does offer something invaluable: peace of mind that your wishes will be respected and

your loved ones protected.

It’s not only important to have a Will — it’s just as essential to review and update it regularly.

A current and valid Will ensures your assets are distributed according to your wishes, and

that the right people are appointed to look after your affairs.

You should consider updating your Will if:

 Your personal circumstances have changed

 A spouse, family member, or executor has passed away

 You’ve bought or sold significant assets

 Your family structure has changed (e.g. marriage, divorce, new children).

If you’re unsure whether your Will is up to date, or if you’ve never created one, we’re here to

help.

Call Equilaw today on (02) 6542 5566 to arrange an appointment to prepare or update your

Will. Let us help you protect what matters most.
