A valid will is a legally enforceable document which names the people and/or organisations you nominate to care for family members and to receive your assets when you die.
You can contact a solicitor, trust office or the Law Society in your state or territory for advice about preparing a will. Some trust companies specialise in preparing wills and do not charge a fee if they are appointed executor of the estate.
The CMRI has recently joined with CharityWills - a division of Lawsoft Pty Ltd - to help our supporters write their own will online, free of charge, while leaving a bequest to the CMRI. The site provides a simple step-by-step facility for anyone to create and print their own will for free, in return for leaving a bequest to the CMRI.
Visit CharityWills Australia to write your own will online now.
