mportant information on making a Will is not easy to obtain, and trying to understand the relevant State legislation as it is printed is almost impossible. As a result many Wills sometimes do not contain all that the Will-maker would want to express. This Will kit was written after a study of the legislation and explains in simple English many of the tasks that the legal Will can accomplish, and the requests that the Will maker can include.
This Will kit is more than just a few sheets of paper in which you write down the names of chosen relatives. This extensive kit sets out to clearly inform you of possible actions you can take and then supplies the appropriate phrases for you to use. It also explains the dire consequences of not taking some actions.
This Will & Testament kit can cover assets held in most overseas countries and provides Information which might be vital when Australia is not your country of birth.
In addition to the functions listed later in these pages this kit informs about how to check a relatives Will where it is thought that you might be a beneficiary, and how to commence a challenge where it is thought that you have been over-looked.
An additional bonus is that the kit contains a register in which you can list your assets and your beneficiaries. This is not a legal requirement and is not part of the Will but helps organise your estate. Knowing the location of assets and beneficiaries makes your executor's job much simpler.
Writing a Will with this kit can be done in two manners. The various clauses can be applied as required or the pre-printed sheets can be completed after you have gained the appropriate knowledge.
The legislation governing Wills differs from State to State but this Will, although specific for each State, is also ruled legal for every State in Australia.
