Our mission is to support our clients through some of their most challenging life events.
Specialising in estate planning, deceased estate administration
and estate litigation.
We also assist with the implementation of non-litigated estate and property settlements.
We believe that your estate planning is about so much more than a will; it is also about having a “Plan B” for adverse life events.
Wherever possible, we operate on a fixed fee basis and pride ourselves on putting people before profits.
It’s simple. We want to help.
