A will is not a “set and forget” document.

You should review it after:

- Marriage, new relationships or separation
- Birth of children
- Significant asset changes

Outdated wills can be as problematic as having none. If it has been years, it is worth reviewing. Contact us today to arrange a review appointment. https://smrlaw.com.au/contact/

Online will kits look convenient. The risk is what they don’t cover.

We regularly see DIY wills that:

- Are invalid
- Create ambiguity
- Lead to disputes

Fixing mistakes after death is significantly harder and more expensive than getting it right upfront.

A will is not just a document. It’s a legal instrument. Treat it accordingly. Contact us to arrange an appointment today.

If you don’t have a will, you don’t control what happens next.

Your estate is distributed under a strict legal formula. That may not reflect your wishes, your relationships, or your intentions.

In Queensland, this can mean:

- Delays in administering your estate
- Increased costs
- Outcomes you would not have chosen
- people you intended to receive a gift, not receiving a gift
- people you never intended to receive a gift, receiving a gift

A properly drafted will puts you back in control.

If you don’t have a will, now is the time to fix that. Contact us to arrange an appointment. https://smrlaw.com.au/contact/

Caught Out at a Coldplay Concert? 🎤💔

If your partner was meant to be working late but was spotted singing along to "Fix You" with someone else… it might be time to get legal advice.
