Dying Without a Will in Queensland
If a person dies without a valid will, they are said to have died intestate. Instead of their assets being distributed according to their wishes, their estate is distributed according to a fixed legal formula under the Succession Act 1981 (Qld).
Why More Australian Families Are Choosing Testamentary Trust Wills
More Australian families are incorporating a testamentary trust into their Wills, recognising that they offer more than simply distributing assets. They can provide greater protection, flexibility and tax advantages for future generations.
