Preparing A Will
Creating a will is a crucial part of estate planning that ensures your assets are distributed according to your wishes after your passing. At Wright Street Lawyers, located in Adelaide, South Australia, our experienced legal team can assist you in preparing a comprehensive will tailored to your specific needs.
Why is a Will Important?
A will is a legal document that outlines how you want your assets to be distributed upon your death. Without a will, your assets may be distributed according to the laws of intestacy, which may not align with your preferences.
Key Steps in Preparing a Will

Our team of client-focused lawyers at Wright Street Lawyers will guide you through the process of preparing your will. We will discuss your assets, beneficiaries, and any specific wishes you may have.
2. Drafting the Will
Once we have gathered all necessary information, we will draft a legally binding will that accurately reflects your wishes. Our attention to detail ensures that your will is comprehensive and clear.
3. Review and Signing
After the draft is prepared, we will review it with you to ensure that all details are correct. Once you are satisfied, we will oversee the signing of the will, ensuring that it meets all legal requirements.
