At Powe & White Family Lawyers, we assist clients in preparing and updating Wills to ensure their wishes are clearly documented and align with their current personal circumstances. Our team recognises the importance of addressing changes such as marriage, divorce, or separation, which can impact your Will and the distribution of assets, including superannuation and life insurance beneficiaries. We also provide secure custody of all Wills and Power of Attorney documents prepared by our firm, offering clients peace of mind. Our advice extends to Powers of Attorney and Enduring Guardianship, enabling clients to appoint trusted individuals to manage their legal, financial, health, and lifestyle decisions in situations where they may be unable to do so. We guide clients through the implications of these documents and handle their preparation, ensuring that each arrangement reflects the client’s intentions and safeguards their interests.
