Simplifying Wills and Estates to ensure your wishes.

Wills & Estates

Drafting Wills

A carefully drafted will is the foundation of an effective estate plan. At Lopes Legal, we ensure that your wishes are clearly documented and legally enforceable, providing peace of mind for you and your loved ones.

Why You Need a Will

A valid will ensures that your assets are distributed according to your wishes after your passing. Without a will, your estate will be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your preferences. A well-drafted will can:

  • Provide for your family and dependents.
  • Minimise the risk of disputes and delays in administering your estate.
  • Specify guardians for minor children.
  • Allocate assets, including property, savings, and sentimental items.


Our Drafting Process

At Lopes Legal, we take the time to understand your unique circumstances and goals. We ensure that your will is clear, comprehensive, and legally compliant by addressing:

  • Your chosen beneficiaries and how assets will be distributed.
  • Appointment of executors to manage your estate.
  • Guardianship arrangements for minor children.
  • Special provisions, such as charitable donations or care for pets.
  • Any specific wishes or instructions regarding your funeral or burial.

Complex Wills

For clients with more intricate financial situations or family dynamics, we specialise in drafting wills that address complexities such as:

  • Blended families and second marriages.
  • Business ownership and succession planning.
  • Assets held overseas or in trusts.
  • Superannuation and binding nominations.
