The service offered by Rolanda Adams Financial Services is underpinned by our extensive financial planning experience and a thorough understanding of your personal affairs which allows us to provide guidance and advice when identifying the key beneficiaries for your Estate including, but not limited to providing the following:
- Appropriate investment and superannuation strategies
- Personal risk assessment
- Asset protection
- Retirement planning
Whilst Will Kits or other forms of DIY Wills may be cheap, they are rarely effective, especially when taking the concept of “fairness” for beneficiaries into consideration. There are numerous advantages to having a properly considered Estate Plan when compared to a simple Will. A Will is only one piece of an Estate Plan. Many people are not aware that superannuation, which in many cases, is their largest asset and may not be governed by the Will. There is no one size fits all approaches as every situation is different. A financial planner in collaboration with your other advisers can ensure that you have an Estate Plan that meets your Estate objectives.
At Rolanda Adams Financial Services, Wills and Estate Planning are afforded far greater priority than is normal practice for most financial planning firms. Rather than simply ticking a box on a check list, we work with you to understand the important role a Will and Estate Plan plays in your overall financial planning needs.
