We'd love to hear from you. Send us a text :-)
Ever wondered what legal documents you need to have in place before you die? Or how to handle your assets and loved ones when the inevitable happens? In this episode of "Don't Be Caught Dead," I'm joined by Greg Russo, one of Victoria's most experienced and respected succession law solicitors. Greg shares his journey into law, driven by a love for maths and logic, and how he found his passion in succession law—a field where numbers meet human stories.
We dive deep into the essentials of succession law, discussing everything from wills and superannuation nominations to powers of attorney and advanced care directives. Greg explains the importance of having the right documents in place to ensure your assets are managed and your loved ones are cared for when you're no longer able to do so. He also sheds light on how to plan for your financial future and the guardianship of your children if you die or become incapacitated.
Get ready to learn about the nitty-gritty of succession law in a way that's clear, engaging, and relatable. Greg's insights will not only help you understand the legal landscape better but also empower you to make informed decisions about your future.

- Understanding the importance of wills and superannuation nominations
- The role of powers of attorney and advanced care directives
