Blended families: avoiding a family feud with estate planning

Written by bongiorno group

Blended families are increasingly common in Australia, but they can make estate planning complex.

 

Without a clear will or structure in place, questions of inheritance can quickly lead to conflict. Family lawyer Vic Rajah discusses with the Bongiorno Group’s Chantelle Turner how blended families can plan effectively using wills, testamentary trusts, and neutral executors.

 

Vic explains the importance of updating documents, securing insurance, and protecting loved ones — ensuring that when life changes, your legacy and family harmony remain secure.
