Estate Planning & Probate Lawyers Sydney CBD

Estate Planning for Every Stage of Life

We don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all” templates. We tailor your estate plan to your specific life circumstances:

• New Parents: Ensure your children are cared for by legally appointing Guardians and establishing trusts to manage their inheritance until they reach maturity.
• Blended Families: Navigate the complexities of providing for a current spouse while protecting the inheritance of children from previous relationships.
• Business Owners: Secure your professional legacy with Succession Planning, ensuring a smooth transition of ownership and control.
• Retirees & Seniors: Plan for future incapacity with Enduring Power of Attorney and Guardianship documents, ensuring your health and finances are in trusted hands.

Our Comprehensive Legal Services

1. Sophisticated Wills & Testamentary Trusts

Beyond a simple Will, we specialize in Testamentary Discretionary Trusts. These provide superior asset protection from beneficiaries’ creditors or relationship breakdowns and offer significant tax efficiencies for minor children.

2. Probate & Estate Administration

If you have lost a loved one, we provide compassionate and efficient assistance with:

• Grant of Probate: Required when there is a valid Will.
• Letters of Administration: Required when someone passes away without a Will (Intestacy).
• Executor Assistance: Guiding you through the legal duties of distributing an estate.

3. Powers of Attorney & Enduring Guardianship

Estate planning isn’t just about what happens after you pass. We help you prepare for the unexpected by appointing trusted individuals to manage your financial affairs and medical decisions should you lose the capacity to do so yourself.

4. Superannuation & Binding Nominations

Many people don’t realize that your Will does not automatically cover your Superannuation. We advise on Binding Death Benefit Nominations (BDBN) to ensure your super and life insurance reach your intended beneficiaries.

5. Contesting a Will & Estate Disputes

If you have been unfairly left out of a Will or believe a Will is invalid, our Sydney-based litigation team can assist you with Family Provision Claims and estate disputes to ensure a fair outcome.

The Revolance Roadmap: Our Process

1. Initial Consultation: We sit down (in person at our Sydney CBD office or via video) to understand your family dynamics, assets, and goals.
2. Strategic Drafting: Our solicitors draft your documents, focusing on tax effectiveness, asset protection, and minimizing the risk of future “Will contests.”
3. Execution & Secure Storage: We oversee the formal signing to ensure all NSW legal requirements are met and offer secure and complimentary storage for your original documents.
