ESTATE PLANNING, TRUSTS & ESTATE LITIGATION

Overview

With an ageing population and the nuclear family no longer the status quo, estate planning, culminating in a professionally prepared Will and ancillary documents, can help to avoid the trauma and cost of litigation at an emotional time following the death of a loved one.

The TressCox Trusts and Estates Group is the largest team specialising in trusts, estate planning and litigation in New South Wales.  With over 200 years of combined professional expertise, the TressCox team of lawyers includes NSW Law Society Accredited Specialists in Wills and Estates, senior partners, consultants, solicitors and paralegals.

The Trusts and Estates Group acts for two of the major trustee companies in New South Wales, legal firms who do not specialise in this area, accountants, financial planners and private individuals.  We can assist in wealth creation programs through the preparation of a comprehensive estate plan, applying our thorough understanding of the law in relation to Wills, trusts, tax, and superannuation.

The team focuses on ensuring that an estate plan takes into account all assets, including those held personally, jointly, in a trust or in a superannuation fund, either locally or overseas.  We understand the inter-relationship between these various forms of ownership and coordinate all the necessary documentation. Ultimately, we aim to see the successful transfer of your assets to the next generation in a manner that is tax effective, protective of family assets and ensures that wasteful and traumatic estate litigation is avoided.

If litigation is necessary, we are able to assist clients with:

• The service of specialists
• Innovative strategies
• Experienced mediators
• Regular contact with specialist barristers
• Tough negotiators.
