Succession Law
Wills and Estate Planning
Planning for what happens to your estate and affairs after your passing is essential for ensuring that what you want to happen is what actually happens. Dying without a will leaves your estate open to being dealt with by legislation that may not reflect your desires. To ensure your family, dependants and other beneficiaries receive what you want them to have requires a professionally prepared will. At GEA Lawyers our experienced team will guide you through the legal requirements to make sure that your wishes are carried out just as you desire.
​
Executor or Trustee of a Will
If you are the Executor or Trustee of a will, it can be a daunting and demanding task. Engaging GEA Lawyers to work with you can remove a great deal of the stress and conflict that may arise and ensure that you are fulfilling your obligations to the letter of the law.
​
Intestate and Letter of Administration
If someone in your family dies without a will we can apply for a Letter of Administration on behalf of the estate to the Supreme Court of NSW Probate Division.
If you feel you have been treated unfairly as the beneficiary of a will we can make application for you under the Family Provision Act to have your interests restored.
Power of Attorney and Guardianship
At some stage in your life, you may become incapable of controlling and administering your own affairs. This is when a Power of Attorney or a Guardianship can allow someone you trust to be responsible for matters concerning your legal affairs or your health and medical decisions. Having these documents in place before you need them is critical to ensure that your wishes and rights are respected and protected. GEA Lawyers can help you with reviewing your planning and drawing up Power of Attorney and Guardianship documents.
​
Legal Advice and Assistance
Before any of these legal formalities are required you may just want to understand what your options are or get assistance with preparing for the administration of affairs that you are a party to. GEA Lawyers offer the highest level of confidential advice and assistance and welcome you to come in for a discussion about how your interests can be looked after.
