Do you know that 100% of your estate will go to your spouse and child of the relationship if you pass away without a will?
Family law encompasses all aspects of family life, and that includes providing future financial support to your loved ones in the event of your passing.
There are many safeguards to protect your family that we will guide you through when considering your final wishes.
Worland Family Law can help you decide who you need to nominate to carry out these wishes:
Enduring Power of Attorney
- Makes financial decisions (you by proxy) on your behalf, if you are unable to make decisions for yourself in the future.
General Power of Attorney
- Makes financial decisions on your behalf within a specific time frame (eg if you are going into hospital and need someone to handle your affairs for a short time).
Executor
- Ensures that your assets are distributed fairly and according to your wishes.
Enduring Guardian
- Makes decisions regarding your health and living arrangements in the event that you are unable to do so. Does not usually make financial decisions.
