Safeguarding your property after separation
For many, owning real estate will often be the most significant asset and the cornerstone of financial (and personal) security. Therefore, when a relationship breaks down, it is critical that you take steps to ensure that on your death, your property will pass in accordance with your wishes. Binay Prasad, Accredited Specialist (Wills & Estates Law), explains.
Protecting your Superannuation following a separation
Superannuation is a unique asset which does not automatically pass according to your Will. When your relationship breaks down, it is important to ensure that your superannuation will be paid in accordance with your final wishes. Binay Prasad, Accredited Specialist (Wills & Estates Law), summarises the current situation in Victoria.
Have you recently separated? Do you need to update your Will?
There are many things to consider when you are in the throws of separation or a divorce. Updating your Will should be high on the list, as Binay Prasad, Accredited Specialist (Wills & Estates Law), explains.
