Estate Planning FAQ
Find answers to common questions about estate planning matters in Australia.
These are general ranges. Your actual fee depends on the firm and your specific matter. A simple will typically costs $300-$800, while complex wills with testamentary trusts can cost $1,500-$5,000+. DIY will kits are risky and often lead to disputes.
Wills are commonly reviewed every 3-5 years, and after major life events such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, significant asset changes, or moving interstate, which can affect a will's operation.
Your estate will be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not match your wishes. The process is more complex and expensive, and unintended beneficiaries may inherit.
Without an enduring power of attorney, if a person loses capacity their family must apply to a tribunal to manage their affairs.

Customer reviews
“Going through a separation, I found LawyerLink late one Sunday night via Google. Sent through my details not expecting much that quickly. Got a callback by mid-morning Monday from one of the lawyers, who took the time to listen before launching into advice. What I appreciated most was that no one tried to upsell me or push me into a retainer on the spot. Have already passed the website on to a friend going through something similar.”
“Needed urgent help with a driving matter that was going to court the following week. Used the chatbot late in the evening and had a lawyer ring me first thing the next morning. He worked through the situation with me calmly and gave me clear next steps. Felt much less alone going into the hearing.”
“Slipped at work, used the form, lawyer rang back same arvo. Job done.”
