Why you NEED to write a Will in 2025 - Interview with Lawyer Abbey John


Listen Later

Writing a Will is on my  'adult life admin' to do list but something I keep putting off because it's uncomfortable to think about AND feels like something future Ash can worry about instead. 

After speaking with friends I realised I'm not the only one who thinks like this. 

So, to help all of us be high achievers in this life AND the afterlife I invited in an expert. 

Yes, Lawyer Abbey John specialises in making the tough conversations easier and has helped people all over Australia to write Wills. 

What I've come to realise after speaking with Abbey is that writing one (even a basic one that can be edited later) is an act of love and care for everyone around me. Dealing with loss is horrible. Being left with a mess of sorting out what's left can break families and friends apart at a time they need to be together most. 

Questions we discuss include: 

* So, what is a legally binding Will anyway? 

* What are some of the issues that we should consider when writing one? 

* Do you need to include your pets in a Will? 

* What should we do if we inherit the responsibility of sorting out someone else's final wishes? 

* Can you specify that people have to do certain things with the money / assets you leave them? 

* What if you don't have anyone you'd like to leave things to?

* What happens if you write a Will and then have a breakup, child or change of circumstances?
