They shall grow not old,
as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
and in the morning
We will remember them.

We will remember them
Lest we forget.

Worried about protecting your assets during a separation?

When a relationship breaks down, property division isn’t always straightforward. The asset pool can include everything from real estate and savings to superannuation and even liabilities—and it’s not just about whose name things are in.

There are steps you can take to better protect your position, including keeping clear financial records, understanding your contributions, and considering formal agreements where appropriate.

Getting the right advice early can make a significant difference to the outcome.

Thinking about a prenup? It’s not just for the wealthy.

In Australia, prenuptial agreements (known as Binding Financial Agreements) are a legally recognised way for couples to outline how assets and finances will be handled if a relationship breaks down. When done correctly, they can provide clarity, protect assets, and help avoid costly disputes down the track.

But they must meet strict legal requirements to be enforceable—and there are risks if they’re not properly prepared.

If you’re considering one, it’s important to understand both the benefits and the limitations.

⚖️ What Happens If You Die Without a Will in Queensland?

Have you ever wondered what happens to your estate if you pass away without a valid will? In Queensland, it’s not as simple as everything automatically going to your nearest family — the law steps in and makes those decisions for you.

In our latest article, we break down why dying intestate — that’s the legal term for dying without a will — can lead to:
✔ Delays in distributing your assets
✔ Family disputes over who inherits
✔ Assets going to people you might not have intended
✔ Higher costs and legal hurdles for your loved ones

When there’s no valid will, Queensland’s intestacy laws dictate exactly how your estate is shared — often starting with your spouse and children, and then extending to parents, siblings or more distant relatives if no immediate family is left.

The article also explains how an administrator is appointed and why obtaining Letters of Administration is a necessary step for handling the estate.

💡 Don’t leave your legacy to chance. Making a will ensures your wishes are clear and helps protect your loved ones from unnecessary stress.
