People are free to leave and distribute their assets to whomever they desire. However, the Succession Act 1981 in Queensland states that if someone is dissatisfied with the terms of a Will, or if the deceased did not have a Will and someone thinks the rules of intestacy are unfair, they can apply to the Court for ‘Proper Maintenance and Support’ from the Estate.

A Mutual Will is a legal agreement between two people, stating that neither will change their Will without the other person's consent. It can be in writing or by verbal agreement. Learn how we can help protect your interests and the wishes of your loved ones.
Unfortunately, people do not always conduct themselves lawfully when appointed as a person's attorney pursuant to an Enduring Power of Attorney. For example, if the attorney doesn't act in that person's best interest (for example, they take their assets), we can assist in getting those assets back and potentially punish the attorney.
Undue influence is when someone pressures or coerces the Will maker into writing a Will that does not reflect their genuine wishes. If you suspect that a loved one's will was influenced by someone using undue influence, our team of experienced lawyers is here to help.
