How to Make Sure your Will is Legally Binding
Preparing a legal Will does not have to be difficult or time consuming. However in saying this, it is important that the Will is prepared correctly to ensure that your wishes are carried out after your death.
Legal Rules for Drafting a Will
There are certain rules that need to be complied with when drafting a Will and it is not a document to be taken lightly. Because of the important nature of Wills, we at Queensland Family Law Practice pride ourselves on staying up to date with the most recent laws to ensure that the document we prepare for you will withstand the vigorous court examinations.
We have provided an online Will preparation application to make the process of obtaining a Will simple and easy for you.
