Pippa Colman & Associates Law Practice is your Sunshine Coast Wills and Estates specialists. There are three very important documents everyone should have in place:

• a Will
• an Enduring Power of Attorney
• an Advanced Health Directive

These documents outline to those close to you about what you would like to happen in the event you are unable to make a decision.

Once you are over 18 years of age, these documents should be in place. They become more important as you acquire assets and property, and as you start a family.

And if you have these in place, they should be regularly reviewed to see if they still reflect your wishes and intentions.

Whilst not a legal requirement, we strongly encourage having a solicitor draft your documents rather than purchasing an over the counter Will kit. The consequences of mistakes or improperly prepared documents can cause great difficulty and heartache to loved ones.

Our fees for preparing your documents is a fixed fee and is structured as follows:

• If you require a simple Will, our fee for drafting and executing the Will for you is $400*
• If you require a more complex Will, our fee for drafting and executing the Will for you is $800**.
• If you require a Will with a Testamentary Trust, our fee for drafting and executing the Will for you is $1,800.
• If you require an Enduring Power of Attorney, our fee for drafting and executing the EPA for you is $400.
• If you require an Advanced Health Directive, our fee for drafting and executing the AHD for you is $300.

*A simple Will excludes any reference to self managed super funds and any business structures such as trusts or companies.

**A complex Will includes references to self managed super funds and any business structures such as trusts or companies.
