From "I'll book a call" to "my estate plan is sorted." Three steps. About 2 weeks total.
Pick a time that suits you. Same-week appointments usually available. We'll Call You — no travel, no waiting rooms, no forms in triplicate.
Fred reads your answers before the call so we skip the small talk. 15 minutes: 3–4 questions, clear advice on what's missing and provides answers to anything you want to know. No sales pitch. No upsell script.
Same-day fixed-fee quote via email. No hourly billing surprises. If you want to proceed, we usually finalise your full estate plan in one follow-up appointment. If you don't — you walk away with clarity. Zero pressure.
The first had the thought. A friend got sick. A colleague lost a parent. They realised — if something happened to them tomorrow, their family would be left exposed. They're here to sort it.
The second keeps meaning to do it. Every tax time. Every super statement. Still hasn't.
If you're either — the next step is below.
1. The Succession Act 2006 (NSW) decides where your assets go. Not you.
2. If you and your spouse die together — common in car accidents — the rules around who inherits get
complicated fast. In some scenarios, your kids’ inheritance ends up controlled by your in-laws.
3. The Family Court decides who raises your kids if you haven’t named a guardian.
4. Your superannuation doesn’t automatically go to your spouse. Without a binding death benefit nomination,
the trustee decides.
5. Your business interests, investment property, and any company shares get tied up in probate for 6–12
months while your family waits.
None of this is hypothetical. We see it too often.

I’m a NSW-admitted solicitor and I’ve been a Solicitor for Fred Kalouche & Associates for over 17 years. Wills, Estate Planning, and NSW Property Law is what I do — every day.
I built this practice around one idea: estate planning shouldn’t feel scary, expensive, or complicated. Most families don’t sort it out because the process feels overwhelming. So I made it simple.
Free 15-minute call. Straight answers about your situation. Fixed-fee quote if you want one. No follow-up sales pressure.
That’s it. That’s the whole process.
If you’ve been meaning to sort this out for a while, book a call. Even if you don’t proceed, you’ll walk away with a clear picture of where you actually stand.
Many of my clients are in their 30s and 40s with young kids. That's exactly when this matters most.
Many of them may not survive a contest, don't deal properly with super, blended families or the Succession Rules of NSW generally. The last thing you want is a Will which can be easily disputed or provides challenges for a Court to grant Probate.
Fixed fee, quoted upfront on the call. No hourly billing, no surprises.
Probably yes. If you've had kids, bought property, started a business, or gotten married since — your Will needs updating.
I read your form answers before we talk. I ask 3–4 questions, tell you what's missing, and send a quote the same day if you want one.
Yes. A Will only kicks in when you die. A Power of Attorney covers decisions if you're alive but unable to act. Enduring Guardianship also a very effective tool for those you Trust. I sort all three in one engagement.
Yes. Everything's done over Google Meet or Zoom. I work with NSW residents from the Central Coast to Wagga to Byron.
A complete estate plan typically includes a Will (who gets what), a Power of Attorney (who manages your finances if you can't), and an Enduring Guardianship (who makes health and lifestyle decisions for you). Depending on your situation, it may also include testamentary trusts and superannuation binding death benefit nominations. We'll go through exactly what you need on the free 15-minute call.
For most families, a straightforward Will, Power of Attorney and Enduring Guardianship can be completed within 1–2 weeks of your first meeting. More complex estates may take a little longer. Either way, we quote a fixed fee upfront so there are no surprises.
Yes. A Will is a personal legal document — it can't be shared. However, we prepare mirror Wills for couples at the same time, which is more efficient and cost-effective. We'll also make sure they align properly.
Superannuation doesn't automatically form part of your estate. The trustee of your super fund has discretion over who receives it, unless you have a valid Binding Death Benefit Nomination in place. Without one, your super may not go where you intend. This is one of the most commonly misunderstood parts of estate planning.
Absolutely — and you should. Review your Will every 3–5 years, or after any major life change: marriage, divorce, new children, buying property, or a change in assets. Updating is straightforward and we can help you do it quickly.
A testamentary trust is created by your Will and only comes into effect when you pass away. It can provide significant protection for beneficiaries who are minors, have a disability, or may be in a vulnerable situation. Not everyone needs one, but for families with young children or significant assets, it's worth discussing. We'll cover this on the call.
Your estate is distributed under intestacy rules — a fixed legal formula that may not reflect your wishes at all. Your partner may not automatically receive everything. Your children, parents or siblings may have a claim. And the courts may need to decide who raises your minor children but this is on a case by case basis. A properly drafted Will avoids all of this.
Yes, completely. It's a genuine conversation — not a sales pitch. We'll review your situation, identify any gaps, and tell you clearly what you need and what it will cost. No pressure, no obligation. Most people find 15 minutes is enough to get complete clarity on where they stand.
15 minutes. Free. Zero obligation.
You'll leave with a clear picture of what your NSW estate plan actually needs — and a fixed-fee quote if you want one.
Same-week appointments available — spaces fill quickly.
