- Benjamin Franklin

At this month’s dinner meeting we tackle both of these as we discuss the important task of estate planning. When you’re busy living your life, the idea of facing your own mortality can be an awkward or even painful conversation. However it’s important to consider preparing for this eventuality sooner rather than later.

We have assembled a panel of experts who will be able to guide you through what issues you need to consider NOW to ensure that your wishes can be followed in the event of your death or incapacity. With the use of discussion and case studies we will break down the complex estate planning subjects of wills, powers of attorneys, taxation, the role of life insurance and how superannuation is treated upon death.

In order to protect yourself, your family, your assets and your business this is one night that can’t be missed. By the end of the evening we will leave you with a succinct to-do list and the confidence of knowing how to tackle the important task of estate planning to provide you and your loved ones with peace of mind.
