Acting as an executor is an important responsibility. From managing estate assets and settling debts to ensuring the wishes outlined in the will are carried out, it can be a time-consuming and complex role—especially during an emotional time.

In Australia, executors may be entitled to receive compensation for their time and effort. This can be outlined in the will itself or, in some cases, determined by the Supreme Court if no specific amount is stated. It’s a way to acknowledge the work involved in looking after the estate and the people connected to it.

At MJM Lawyers, we offer clear and compassionate guidance to executors navigating their legal and administrative duties.

Need clarity on your role as an executor or your potential entitlements? Reach out to our team via online or book an appointment in one of our offices.

A will is more than just a document—it’s a vital plan for looking after your loved ones and ensuring your assets are distributed according to your wishes. Without a valid will, intestacy laws determine who inherits your estate, which may not align with what you intended.

At MJM Lawyers, we assist in drafting legally sound wills tailored to your circumstances. Is your will up to date? L

Life is a journey marked by change—marriage, the birth of children, starting a business, or even separation. Each of these milestones can significantly impact your financial and personal circumstances. Regularly reviewing and updating your estate plan ensures that your wishes reflect your current circumstances and are not outdated, leading to unhappiness and disputes between those you leave behind.

By keeping your estate plan updated, you provide clear guidance to your executor, facilitating a smoother administration process and reducing the potential for disputes among beneficiaries.

Contact us today to discuss how we can give you guidance in updating your estate plan wit

The absence of a valid will can lead to unintended consequences, as intestacy laws will dictate the distribution of your estate. This process may not reflect what truly matters and can create complexities for your loved ones.

By ensuring you have a current and legally sound will, you take control over the allocation of your assets and provide clarity for your beneficiaries.

At MJM Lawyers, we specialise in guiding clients through the intricacies of will preparation, to make sure their intentions are well documented.

Naming an executor is one of the most important choices you’ll make in your estate plan. This person will be responsible for looking after your affairs, ensuring your final wishes are carried out, and managing any legal or financial matters that arise. It’s not just about picking someone you trust—it’s about selecting someone with the ability to handle complex responsibilities with care and diligence.

An executor should be someone who understands the importance of your wishes, can navigate legal and financial obligations, and has the strength to manage potential family dynamics. They don’t have to do it alone—seeking legal and professional support can make the process smoother.

Choosing wisely can make all the difference for your loved ones. If you need guidance on estate planning, we’re here to help ensure your legacy is looked after the right way.

When you make a will, you can;

Choose the person you want to distribute your assets, tailor your gifts to the needs of your beneficiaries, use tax effective ways of leaving your assets to particular people, choose the age at which you wish your beneficiaries to inherit, and adopt strategies to minimise the potential for disputes.
