This pre-recorded webinar, hosted by Macular Disease Foundation Australia and presented by a lawyer specialising in estate administration, considers the legalities of drafting a Will.
We know that family and loved ones come first. However, you may wish to consider a bequest, to allow us to continue our sight-saving work.
A bequest is a meaningful way to make a lasting impact on the eye health and the lives of future generations. Bequests help us fund ground-breaking research into macular disease, as well as support estimated 1.9 million Australians who live with a macular disease.
While many people prefer not to think about estate planning, it doesn’t have to be a complicated process.
This webinar considers all the legalities of drafting a Will, including;
- What is a bequest?
- What is a Will?
- Estate versus non-estate assets
- What makes a Will legally binding?
- Different forms of gifts
- Protecting your estate
Because every person’s situation is different, and laws vary depending on where you live, the advice provided is general in nature.
