Your legacy begins here.
Talking about end-of-life decisions is difficult, but it’s a conversation we all need to have. Regardless of your stage of life, it’s likely you own assets and/ or possessions with significant value or personal meaning such as property, vehicles, heirlooms, and pets.
You may also have children under the age of 18 years and loved ones you want to make sure are taken care of. Unless a legally binding Will is in place, the decision of what is left to those you care about – including who will look after your young or vulnerable children – could fall into the wrong hands.
A Will is one of the most important documents you will ever create, but it can’t be created after you’re gone. When you need to make a Will or update an existing Will, it is essential to engage professionals with the specialist skills and knowledge to navigate the complexities of estate planning.
The Will Professionals will take the time to truly understand your personal situation, ensuring you have the right Will and legal documentation in place. And, with an approach that is caring and empathetic, you can be assured a stress-free experience and the peace of mind that comes with knowing your legacy is in safe hands.

About our Wills.
Premium Wills
The Premium Will has been created for individuals with a simple and/or small estate. It is designed for straightforward gifting of a person’s assets.
Scenario: Sally is 25 years old and still resides at home. She owns a car outright, some personal jewellery and a guitar, and has around $3,000 in savings. Because she has an Essential Will in place, Sally knows that her first car will be left to her sister, her guitar will go to her best friend and her savings and jewellery to her parents. Sally will also benefit from an EPA and EPG.
Platinum Trust Wills
The Platinum Trust Will is more in-depth than the Essential Will. You can include things like the appointment of guardians for your children, a pet trust , and give a dependent the right to live in your home for their life. It also includes specific trustee powers.
Scenario: John is 45 years old, separated from his first wife and is now living with a new partner. He has a child from his first marriage and one with his new partner. He owns a house with his new partner, savings in the bank, a rental property, two cars and assets totaling $100,000. Due to the complexity of his ownership of assets and legal responsibilities to both families, a Comprehensive Will (or possibly a Testamentary Trust) is suited to safeguarding John’s wishes.

FAQ's
An Enduring Power of Guardianship (or EPG) is a legally binding document that authorises a specified individual(s) to make important personal, lifestyle and treatment decisions on your behalf, in the event you can no longer make reasoned decisions yourself. At The Will Professionals, all legal Wills include an EPG at no additional cost.
An Enduring Power of Attorney (or EPA) is a legally binding document that authorises a specified individual(s) to make financial and/or property decisions on your behalf, in the event you can no longer make reasoned decisions yourself. At The Will Professionals, all legal Wills include an EPA at no additional cost.
After you have properly signed your Will, the next step is to ensure it is kept in a secure place. This may be in a safe at home, or at an offsite location such as a bank or with your lawyer, accountant or your Executor. You need to make sure your executors know where your Will is stored.
If you were to die without a will (or ‘intestate’ as it is officially known), the contents of your estate will not be distributed how you may have wished them to be. There are legal rules in place that state how your estate will be divided, beginning with the payment of any debts. Your next of kin such as a spouse, parent or adult child (depending on your family circumstances) will be able to apply to the Probate Office of the Supreme Court to request authority to administer and distribute your estate. This may then result in a complex process depending on your personal circumstances, which could be very challenging for your loved ones to go through at such an emotional time. The solution is to ensure you have a proper Will in place before you die, protecting family and friends from unnecessary stress and financial outlay.
In Western Australia there are certain family members and financial dependents who can contest a person’s Will and if successful, the Court can amend the distribution of your estate under your Will. However, if you have a legally binding Will in place, then your wishes are clear. While it is not possible to prevent a person who has the legal right to contest your Will from doing so, there are strategies you can put in place to give voice to the reasons you think their claim should fail. This is done in your Will and by other methods.
