Testamentary Trust Wills

Law Tram’s Wills and Powers of Attorney Consultation simplifies the process by connecting you with licensed Australian lawyers who can offer tailored legal advice specific to your situation. This free, fully online, and obligation-free service ensures you receive expert guidance every step of the way.

Protect Your Family and Assets with a Testamentary Trust Will

A testamentary trust is a trust created by your will that comes into effect after your death. It allows assets to be managed and distributed under specific conditions, providing tax benefits, asset protection, and greater control over how your estate is used.

Testamentary trusts are often used to support children, protect inheritances from family disputes or financial risks, and manage large or complex estates. A lawyer can help you design a trust that reflects your wishes and meets your family’s needs.

Law Tram connects you with experienced lawyers who can explain whether a testamentary trust is right for you and prepare a will that ensures your legacy is managed responsibly.
