Helping you navigate the speed bumps in life

When someone passes away, it can be a challenging time for families. Even the best-laid succession plans and Wills can have chinks, which can ultimately lead to lengthy and costly disputes.

KG

“I was the sole executor of a Will, which was contested. This caused anxiety and was very upsetting for me. Bennett & Philp Lawyers gave me guidance in a very friendly, professional and supportive manner to manage the Estate. A resolution of the Will dispute was obtained out of Court to the satisfaction of all. My sincere thanks to Bennett & Philp Lawyers. I would highly recommend them.”
