Consider this: A couple writes their Wills early, focusing on guardianship for their children and protecting their assets. Those children become young adults, and the family experiences life’s changes, both positive and challenging. They might have acquired new assets such as a business, investment properties, or a holiday home. They could face complex issues like managing inheritances, resolving family disputes, settling financial obligations, or coping with the emotional strain of losing a loved one. Additionally, they may want to safeguard young adults facing financial, health, or personal difficulties or ensure fairness by equalising gifts to account for loans or significant financial assistance given to one child. Without addressing these considerations, their Wills may not reflect their intentions or provide the clarity needed to avoid future conflicts.
Revisiting your Will ensures it reflects your current circumstances and the decisions that matter to you. It’s a practical step to protect your plans and provide clarity for the future.
If it’s been five years or more—or if life’s thrown you a curveball—it’s time for a review. Let’s make sure your Will is as up to date as your life.
