Limited places available

Existing free Will and EPA service
The Public Trustee already provides:
- a free standard Will when you appoint the Public Trustee as executor
- a free Enduring Power of Attorney when you appoint the Public Trustee as attorney
These services continue to be available throughout the year and are not limited by this promotion.
What is a standard Will?
We prepare standard Wills and can assist with many common estate planning needs. Where circumstances are more complex, we will discuss your options and let you know if specialised legal advice is recommended.
Complex estate planning matters
Some situations require specialised legal advice that is outside the scope of our standard Will service.
Examples include:
- Self-Managed Superannuation Funds (SMSFs)
- Family Trusts or Discretionary Trusts
- business ownership arrangements
- Life interests or rights of residence
- Significant overseas assets
In some cases, you may need to get independent legal advice from a solicitor with specialised expertise.
Finding a solicitor
The Law Society of Tasmania can help you find a local solicitor.
