What is a Will?
It’s Your Legacy, Not a Template!
A valid will is one of the most important documents you will ever sign. It is a legal document setting out who gets part or all of a person’s property or assets when they die. Your property and assets are called your “estate”. A badly written will often lead to delays and disputes. Your estate typically consists of houses, money, investments, and personal or household belongings that you own. When doing a will professionally, you will ensure that your wishes are carried out upon your death. Please don’t leave your legacy to a template or a post office will kit as this can result in problems that are not foreseeable.
Foyle Legal is proud to have helped the community prepare wills for several years since inception and continues to help people from all walks of life and different cultures prepare their wills.

What does the wills legislation require in order to make a will?
The formal requirements to make a will are as follows:
- the person making the will must be 18 years of age or older (Section 7 Wills Act 1970);
- the will must be in writing (Section 8(a) Wills Act 1970);
- it is signed by the testator or signed in the testator’s name by some other person in the testator’s presence and by the testator’s direction, in such place on the will so that it is apparent on the face of the will that the testator intended to give effect by the signature to the writing signed as the testator’s will (Section 8(b) Wills Act 1970);
- the testator makes or acknowledges the signature in the presence of at least 2 witnesses present at the same time (Section 8(c) Wills Act 1970);
- the witnesses attest and subscribe the will in the presence of the testator but no publication or form of attestation is necessary (Section 8(d) Wills Act 1970);
- a beneficiary (person who will benefit under a will) should not be a witness to the will.

Key Considerations When Making a Will
Do I need a will?
There is no legal requirement to have a will but having a last will and testament will insure that there is legal certainty about who gets part or all of a person’s property when they die.
If you die without a will, your property and belongings will be distributed in a way laid down by the law.
For instance, if a will is not made then in WA the Administration Act 1903 will apply. A husband and wife making a will, will ordinarily leave everything to each other (should the other partner survive them), and if the husband or wife does not survive them to give their state to their children in equal shares.
If a will is not made then in WA the Administration Act 1903 will apply. For instance in a situation where a person has a husband or wife and children it says:
“where the net value of the intestate property (other than the household chattels) exceeds the sum of $472 000 (or, if there is a declared sum for item 2 applicable to the intestate, that sum) — the surviving husband or wife shall (in addition to the household chattels) be entitled to the sum of $472 000 (or, if there is a declared sum for item 2 applicable to the intestate, that sum), absolutely, together with interest on that sum in accordance with subsection (4) and, of the residue, the surviving husband or wife shall be entitled to one third and the issue shall be entitled in accordance with subsection (2b) to the other two-thirds”.
Is it simple to make a Will?
The requirements under the Wills Act are relatively straightforward, but there are other considerations in making a will, such as whether the joint property can be passed and whether it is practical to carry out your wishes. Seeking professional legal advice in WA will ensure your will is done correctly and your family will have no regrets after you pass away.
Cost of making a will with a lawyer?
Making a will at Foyle Legal is easy. For a simple will, the cost of making a will is fixed.
It costs $550 to create a will for a single person, and it costs $770 to make a will for a couple. This cost is subject to regular review, please call our Foyle Legal office to confirm the updated pricing.
Foyle Legal offers substantial discounts on Power of Guardianship and Power of Attorney when it is completed together with your will.
Executor of your Will
If you do not make a will then anyone interested in your estate can apply to be the executor of your estate. This is a very important position and you should choose a responsible person you believe will carry out their duties properly.
What should be in a Will?
When you make a will, the Will should specify that it is your last Will and that you revoke any previous Wills.
It should appoint one or more persons to be your executor(s). Your
Will should provide for payment of funeral expenses and any debts. It should then state how you want your property distributed, either by naming the item and to whom it is given, or by giving a person a certain amount or percentage of the total value of your property.
If your Will contains specific gifts, it should also state what is to happen with the residue (remaining assets) of the estate.
What happens if I get married or divorced?
If you get married or divorced this has the effect of revoking your will unless you make it in contemplation of marriage or divorce. The best way to ensure you will is current is to consult a specialist wills lawyer in Perth.
Leaving property in your Will
In your will, you may leave any part of your property, including personal items, real estate or amounts of money to particular people (special rules apply to jointly owned property). While it is not necessary to list every item of your property, your will should deal with all your property. The best way to do this is to use expressions like “all of my property of whatever kind” or “all my remaining property of whatever kind”. If your will fails to deal with all your property, any property not dealt with will be divided among your relatives according to law. This kind of division might not be what you wanted and may lead to disputes about the entitlement of certain relatives to your assets.
There are some assets you can’t leave to another person in a will. For example, assets from your superannuation or insurance fund (you usually nominate a beneficiary when you take out the policy). You may wish to make special arrangements for a number of things, for example:
- disposal of your body or organ transplants;
- payment of your executor;
- the occupation of your home;
- the release of a debt owing to you; and
- a gift to charity.
You can generally write these types of things in ordinary language so that they can be understood.
Challenges to a Will
If you are a dependent of someone who has died and has not received a fair share of the deceased’s property under the will or under the Administration Act 1903 (if there is no will), you may be able to challenge it.
If you are a person who wants to create a will, it is best to have your will professionally prepared by a lawyer to reduce the chance of your will being challenged. Some companies may use home visit wills, free will service for pensioners WA, or free wills for seniors WA as the advertising headline to attract attention. It is important to understand the lawyer’s qualifications, and what exactly the service is being offered first before trusting a free source.
Power of Guardianship / Enduring Power of Guardianship
When you are making a will with Foyle Legal, Foyle Legal helps clients to prepare Power of Guardianship or Enduring Power of Guardianship in conjunction with wills.
Power of Attorney
How much does a power of attorney cost in Australia can vary largely based on the complexity.
As a complementary service, we provide fixed-fee service for power of attorney when you are making a will with Foyle Legal.
Foyle Legal helps clients to prepare Power of Attorney in conjunction with wills.
Where can I store my will?
Where you store your will is up to you. Many people decide to store their will at home. Some banks will store your will for you but this is becoming increasingly uncommon. One common place to store your will is with the WA Will Bank operated by the Public Trustee in Western Australia. It is free to store your will with the WA Will Bank if you take it there yourself. You will need to complete the WA Will Bank Deposit Form to store your will with the WA Will Bank.
Do you need a lawyer to make a will?
You do not need a lawyer to draw up a will. We have clients who tried to make a will online, or do it yourself will with a will kit at home but found the experience quite daunting. They just never know if what they included in the will is legal and enforceable. Comparing the cost of writing your own will, and the fixed fee will service we provide for simple wills, most of our past clients prefer to have a legal will drawn up by a lawyer to ensure peace of mind.
Remember – creating a will is about knowing your wishes will be carried out accordingly without disputes!
Don’t simply go with the easiest or cheap wills for pensioners.

I had two workers compensation claims which were disputed by the insurer. I would not have been able to resolve my cases as successfully without the help of Foyle Legal.
