When a person dies the last Will and Testament must be proved as valid.

This involves an application being made to the Probate Division of the Supreme Court of New South Wales for a Grant of Probate by the person nominated as the executor in the will. On the issue of this document by the court the executor may now deal with the estate according to your wishes.

Fay will be available to assist your executor in the legal aspects of the administration of the estate.

In order to take careful instructions from you for preparation of your will, Fay will discuss with you in conference details such as your assets, health issues and arrangements as to your children or grandchildren to ensure that your particular needs are understood.  Remember, a cheap will may not necessarily cater for your individual circumstances if there has been a lack of discussion and no detailed instructions are provided.

Fees for preparation of a simple will are in the order of $650 plus GST.

    • I have had dealings with Fay Frischer in relation to preparation of my Will and in a Family Law matter regarding a de facto relationship financial settlement. In both areas I found her advice, help and action to be thorough, detailed, open and highly organised, I enjoyed a personal rapport with her as well as a respect for her knowledge and skill in determining the best outcome for myself. I would recommend her professional services to anyone who needs thorough and trustworthy legal advice and action in these matters. Again, thank you for your effort and attention on my behalf over the past few months
