Wills & Estates

Complete Estate planning involves detailed organisation and the preparation of a number of legal documents to ensure that all matters are considered both prior to and following a death.

At Cox West Lawyers, we are able to provide assistance in all areas of Estate planning including the preparation of documents, locating assets, dealing with banks or other financial institutions, government organisations, interstate transactions, the sale of real property if necessary and distributing the Estate to the Beneficiaries.

In certain circumstances, Family members wish to contest the Will of a deceased or contest the distribution according to Law and would bring what is known as a Family Provision Act claim. At Cox West Lawyers, we are experienced in these types of matters and have assisted many clients in successful litigation.

We can assist you in the following areas:

  • Drafting a Last Will and Testament;
  • Drafting a Power of Attorney;
  • Drafting an Enduring Guardianship;
  • Drafting a Living Will;
  • Obtaining a Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration from the Supreme Court;
  • Commencing and defending Family Provision Act Claims.
