Estate Planning for Multi-Jurisdictional Assets

Effective estate planning ensures that your wealth is transferred according to your wishes, with minimal tax impact and family disruption. For clients with assets in multiple countries, proper planning is not optional — it's essential.

We assist clients with drafting wills, establishing testamentary trusts, managing probate applications, and resolving estate disputes. Our cross-border expertise is vital for clients holding assets in Australia, India, Malaysia, and beyond.

Without proper planning, your estate could face intestacy rules, contested claims, unnecessary tax, and family disputes. We help you prevent all of this with proactive, well-structured estate planning.

⚠️ Did You Know?

Common estate planning risks you should address:

No valid will

Your estate is distributed under intestacy rules — potentially not your wishes.

Outdated will

Life changes (marriage, divorce, new children) can invalidate provisions.

No testamentary trust

Beneficiaries pay tax at marginal rates instead of lower trust rates.

No Power of Attorney

If incapacitated, no one can legally manage your affairs.
