The Hidden Dangers of DIY Will Kits
While DIY Will kits seem cheap & easy, they often fail to address complex family situations or assets, leading to ambiguity & legal errors.
An invalid or unclear Will can be challenged in court, creating devastating family disputes & costing your estate thousands. Our expert lawyers eliminate that risk, drafting a legally robust Will that is clear, valid, & tailored to you.
No Will? The Law Decides for You
Dying without a valid Will (intestate) means you have no control over who inherits your assets. Your estate is distributed according to a predetermined legal formula, not your personal wishes.
This can lead to unintended outcomes, leaving loved ones without the provision you intended. A professionally drafted Will provides absolute clarity, protects your family, & ensures your legacy is secure.

FAQs about Wills in NSW
What is a Will?
A Will is a legally binding document that outlines your final wishes, detailing how your assets (your ‘estate’) are to be distributed after your death. It also appoints an Executor to carry out your instructions.
What happens if I die without a Will?
If you die without a Will (intestate), the law dictates how your assets are divided according to a set formula. This may not align with your wishes and can cause significant stress and delays for your loved ones.
Can I make my own Will with a DIY kit?
While possible, DIY Wills often fail to comply with legal requirements or address complex situations, which can make them invalid or easy to challenge. Professional legal advice ensures your Will is robust and unambiguous.
Who should I appoint as my Executor?
Your Executor is responsible for administering your estate. You should appoint someone you trust implicitly who is organised and capable of the task, often a spouse, adult child, or a professional like your solicitor.
How do I provide for my young children in a Will?
In your Will, you can appoint a Guardian to care for any children under 18. You can also establish structures like a Testamentary Trust to manage their inheritance until they reach a certain age.
What assets are not automatically covered by my Will?
Assets held in joint names and your superannuation are not automatically part of your estate. Specific legal steps, like a Binding Death Benefit Nomination for your super, are needed to direct these assets.
How is a Will made legally valid?
For a Will to be valid in NSW, it must be in writing, signed by you, and witnessed by two adults who are present at the same time and also sign the document. Beneficiaries should not be witnesses.
When should I update my Will?
You should review and update your Will after any major life event, such as a marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, a significant change in your assets, or the death of a beneficiary or Executor.
How much does it cost to make a Will?
The cost depends on the complexity of your circumstances. At PBL Law Group, we provide a clear fee estimate upfront. Investing in professional drafting now can save your estate significant costs and disputes later.
