Discover the essential strategies for safeguarding your assets and ensuring smooth transitions for your loved ones in our conversation with Polina Kozlova, director of PK Law. As a specialist in private client law, Polina unpacks the critical importance of contracting out agreements and shares her expert insights on the complexities of estate planning, particularly within blended families. Learn why prenups are a vital tool for asset protection and explore alternative options like trust structures, though they may offer less security. Polina’s expertise guides us through the nuances of private client matters, from young adults navigating new relationships to elderly clients addressing wills and aged care concerns.

We also shed light on the probate process and the vital role a will plays in avoiding costly and unintended consequences. Without a will, managing an estate can become increasingly fraught, often requiring additional legal steps and leading to surprising outcomes under New Zealand law. Polina shares real-life examples to highlight the significance of proactive estate planning, ensuring your intentions are honored and your loved ones are spared unnecessary burdens. This episode is a treasure trove of valuable insights for anyone keen on understanding the intersection of relationship property, elder care, and the intricacies of estate management. Join us in this enlightening discussion that promises to empower you with the knowledge to protect your legacy and assets.
