Wills & Estates

Entrusting Pier Law with your will is a simple process, and you can sleep soundly in the knowledge that we will ensure all legal requirements are met and that your estate is administered as per your instructions.

Wills formally spell out how your assets should be dealt with after your passing, and are very important for each individual regardless of age. If you die without a will, the law effectively decides who (from among your family) gets your assets under the Administration Act 1969. You might be surprised to find out how this Act can affect you and your relatives and it is wise to seek advice from a lawyer when making your will.

Some of the wills and estate services we provide include:

• Asset protection planning
• Enduring powers of attorney
• Estate administration
• Estate planning
• Wills preparation
