Most estates follow a straightforward path—assets are collected, debts settled, and distributions made. But When someone contests the validity of the will, files a family provision claim or disputes the executor’s actions, the process becomes contested.

While mediation is often the first step, unresolved disputes can end in court—requiring evidence, affidavits, and legal representation.

MJM Lawyers offers expert guidance through both administration and contested proceedings—with clarity, empathy, and experienced counsel.

At least 6.5 million Australians will have no say in who inherits their superannuation, according to new research from Super Consumers Australia. It is urging people to make sure they have a legally "binding" nomination to ensure their super goes to the people they want it to.

It’s the perfect time to revisit your estate plan. From appointing a guardian to setting up trusts, we’re here to help you plan with care and clarity. Here’s how you can keep your estate plan up-to-date:

Appoint a Guardian: Your Will should name a legal guardian for your minor children — someone you trust to look after them if the unexpected happens.

Establish Trusts for Minors: Set up trusts to hold and manage inheritance until your children reach the age you specify — often older than 18

Keep Documents Current: Life changes—like new children, separation, or moving—mean revisiting your Will, super and binding nominations.

If you’re planning for a loved one with a disability, it’s important to understand your legal options—especially when it comes to long-term care and financial support.

In Australia, there are trusts that are designed to help fund the future care needs of a person with a severe disability, while allowing them to continue receiving some government support. These trusts are known as Special Disability Trusts.

At MJM Lawyers, we help families consider what’s right for their situation and put in place arrangements to care for the loved ones.

Estate planning isn’t just paperwork—it’s peace of mind.

While DIY wills and quick online solutions may appear convenient, they will often not be tailored for you and your individual circumstances. Succession law is intricate, and missing even a small detail can lead to unintended consequences, delays, or disputes down the line.

A legal specialist doesn’t just write a will—they help you understand your options, consider complex scenarios, and ensure your wishes are expressed clearly and legally.

At MJM Lawyers, we take the time to understand your story and help create a plan that truly looks after the people and things that matter to you most. Because when it comes to your legacy, there’s no one-size-fits-all.

Estate planning doesn’t stop at deciding who receives what—it’s about understanding how those assets are passed on, and the financial implications they carry.

While there is no formal inheritance tax in Australia, there are other significant considerations when deciding who should receive certain assets—such as capital gains tax on certain assets, and the tax that may be payable on superannuation, depending on who receives it.

A specialist lawyer works with you (and where needed, with your accountant or financial planner) to identify potential tax consequences and structure your estate plan accordingly.

At MJM Lawyers, we focus on helping you make decisions that are thoughtful, legally robust, and practical—so the legacy you leave is one that truly supports the people you care about. You may book through our online consultation or email us at [email protected]

Yes, beneficiaries can request the Court to effectively remove an executor or an administrator if they believe they are not acting in the best interests of the estate or are failing in their duties.

Common grounds for challenging an executor or administrator include delays in administration, failure to communicate, improper asset management, and breaches of fiduciary duty. Beneficiaries are encouraged to consult an estate law professional to understand their rights and the best course of action in their specific situation.

If you're concerned about how an estate is being managed or unsure about your rights as a beneficiary, our team at MJM Lawyers is here to help. We provide clear, compassionate advice tailored to your situation—so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
