Why have a Will? The main reason is to ensure your estate is gifted in the way that you would like it to be.
If you die without a Will, your estate is distributed as specified by the Succession Act Qld. For example, a person who dies without a Will and is married and has one child, their estate will be distributed as follows:
- the first $150,000 and household chattels to the surviving wife; and
- 50% of everything else to the surviving wife; and
- 50% of everything else is held on trust for the benefit of the child.
We provide Wills, EPOAs and Estates legal services.
