The Importance of Estate Planning in the Face of Crisis

The evolving economic and health crisis arising from COVID-19 has resulted in the world experiencing unprecedented change and complications. These are expected to continue for the foreseeable future, both within our community and our personal lives.

As the nation moves closer to a lockdown, having your estate planning documents up to date will be crucial. Ensure these are readily accessible to yourself, your appointed executors, attorney and medical treatment decision makers.

In light of this, Morrows Legal encourages you to ensure you have valid estate planning documents in place that reflect your current circumstances and wishes.  Morrows Legal recommends that you review your Will and Enduring Power of Attorney documents every two or three years. Review should also take place whenever a major event occurs in your family or there are changes to your assets or to taxation laws.

It’s imperative estate planning covers estate and non-estate assets and unforeseeable circumstances. This process can protect your beneficiaries from paying excessive tax and other financial burdens. Morrows aims to provide you with peace of mind in knowing that your affairs are in order. This way you can be certain your loved ones are looked after, should anything happen to you.
