This webinar, aimed at professional advisers, will highlight key areas of risk in relation to asset management when clients are facing two of the most significant, and often unexpected, life events: death and divorce. We will explore how different scenarios might impact preservation of assets, and provide tips and strategies to help clients mitigate such risks, including across generations. Join Helen Beischer, Associate in Wills and Estates, and Andrew Wheeler, Accredited Specialist in Family Law, for this informative and practical webinar.
How do you build a successful client-lawyer relationship? Having clearly defined goals, understanding risk levels, and using preferred communication methods creates alignment, which is a good beginning for a successful client-lawyer relationship. This CPD event will outline proactive measures to identify potential complications early. Presented by Grant Hutchinson, Managing Partner with 40 years of legal experience. Grant has worked in government, the private sector, and small businesses, practising in large commercial litigation matters and advising clients facing financial difficulties.
Understanding the potential consequences of your actions amidst physical, mental, and financial strains poses a daily challenge for company directors.
While fulfilling company tax payment obligations is typically considered an imperative, there are circumstances in which it may not be the best decision for a director personally. The ramifications of making preferential payments to the ATO in such circumstances can be severe for both financial advisors, accountants and their director clients.
A good estate plan makes sure your assets and personal matters are cared for after your death. This helps avoid disputes amongst your loved ones and gives clear directions during a challenging time. An estate plan is also important if you can't make decisions for yourself. With legal documents, you can choose someone you trust to handle your money and make medical choices for you, following what you want.
Starting and running a business can be both exciting and fulfilling, but it also comes with a set of responsibilities and obligations. In the beginning, not every business may have the luxury of dedicating extensive time and resources to follow legal best practices. However, having a basic understanding of the legal framework for business operations is essential to ensure compliance and long-term success.
Powers of Attorney can grant significant authority for an individual to act on behalf of another. Undoubtedly, these documents hold considerable importance and wield substantial authority. However, the use of Powers of Attorney can create risks for professional advisors, particularly in situations where an attorney exceeds the scope of their lawful authority or purports to exercise powers that the appointment does not legally grant.
