Estate Planning
In its simplest form, Estate Planning is the process of getting your affairs in order for your inevitable (but hopefully distant) death.
More specifically Estate Planning will involve:
- Establishing who is to receive the benefit of your estate and non-estate assets when you die;
- Establishing any tax or duty issues to be addressed, liaising with tax and financial advisors and formulating relevant strategies to minimise tax and duty where possible;
- Creating and documenting the plan to pass ownership and control of the assets and addressing foreseeable contingencies;
- Establishing relevant structures where applicable and implementing any necessary transactions; and
- Executing all testamentary documents including the Will and substitute decision-making documents.
