Failing to create a Will or update it as life unfolds can lead to a situation known as dying intestate. Here are 5 reasons why departing without a legally recognised Will, can can cause issues for loved ones you leave behind.

At Abbotts and Co. Lawyers, we stand by the fact that Estate planning is a critical step towards ensuring a smooth transition of assets and the wellbeing of your loved ones after you're no longer around. Unfortunately, even with the best intentions, people often make significant mistakes during this process.

With emojis bouncing into various aspects of our personal and professional lives, the law has been obligated to dive into the world of our colourful little icons, in the search for meaning.

Abbotts & Co Lawyers are proud of our commitment to assisting members of our local LGBTQIA+ community.

In this month of Pride, we reflect on our tragic past, acknowledge the hard-won victories, and look ahead at the legal barriers still to be overcome.
