DO YOU NEED A WILL IN QUEENSLAND?

A will is an important legal document that allows you to specify how your
property and assets will be distributed after your death. In Queensland, as in
other states and territories in Australia, having a will is important because it
ensures that your wishes are carried out and that your loved ones are provided
for in the way that you want.

There are several reasons why it is important to have a will in Queensland:

 1. To distribute your property and assets: Without a will, your property and
    assets will be distributed according to the rules of intestacy, which are
    determined by the State or Territory in which your property is held. This
    may not align with your wishes, and could result in your loved ones not
    receiving what you intended them to. A will allows you to specify exactly
    how your property and assets should be distributed.
 2. To appoint a guardian for your children: If you have children under the age
    of 18, a will allows you to appoint a guardian to take care of them in the
    event of your death. This is important because, without a will, the State or
    Territory government or Court will decide who will take care of your
    children, and that person may not be the one you would have chosen.
 3. To avoid disputes and conflict: Having a will can help to avoid disputes and
    conflict amongst your loved ones after your death. Provided your will is
    drawn by a competent lawyer, it will provide clear instructions on how your
    property and assets should be distributed, which can help to prevent
    disagreement and confusion.



Overall, having a will in Queensland is important because it allows you to
control how your property and assets are distributed after your death, appoint a
guardian for your children, and avoid disputes and conflict among your loved
ones. It is strongly recommended that everyone, 18 years and over, have a valid
will in place.

CASE EXAMPLE – DAVID

DEFENDING A DEFACED WILL IS STILL VALID

David’s will was marked and damaged. According to Queensland law, to be valid, a
will must be clean and unmarked otherwise the testator will be deemed as being
intestate (not having a will).

CASE EXAMPLE – CELIA

PROVING A DISAPPOINTED BENEFICIARY HAD NO CASE

Celia’s will was challenged by her daughter who had been excluded. We
successfully represented Celia’s estate to defend her wishes. To do this, we we
able to prove that the daughter was wealthy in her own right.

CASE EXAMPLE – MARGARET

PROVING AN UNSIGNED COPY OF WILL EXISTED

Margaret had accidentally destroyed her most recent will but her brother owned
an unsigned copy. We were able to convince the Court to accept the unsigned copy
as legitimate.
