If you die without a Will
If you die without a Will you are considered to have died ‘intestate’. If you die intestate the government uses a standard formula to distribute an intestate persons estate. The formula does not make any allowance for how much people meant to you or how prominent they were in your day-to-day life. It does not take into consideration the value that you placed on individual possessions and who was to receive that special gift. Disputes often occur where there is no Will and are sometimes fought in court. Legal action is expensive and the cost may come out of your estate, further reducing the amount that ends up going to your loved ones. To avoid costly legal battles, family arguments and disagreements it is important that you make sure you write a Will that is legal. It is the most caring thing you can do to help your family and friends cope with the pain of losing you.
Why it makes good sense to write your own Will
Everyone should have a current legal Will. Many people put off writing a Will because they prefer not to think about their death. Sooner or later, everyone needs a legal Will. Every person who is an adult should consider making a Will and ensure the document is legally valid, up to date and safely stored.
Making a Will is forward thinking and using the Australian Will Kit is easy, fast and shows you how to make a Will that is legal. This is a legal Will Kit that can be used in all states and territories of Australia.
Making a Will
Australian law gives you the right to make a Will. You can make sure your assets are distributed according to your wishes. Making a Will while you are still enjoying sound mental health means you make these important decisions before it’s too late. Writing a Will forces us to accept that life is not eternal and we find it easier to avoid the task than face the fact. Not having a Will is not only inconsiderate but may also cause unnecessary trauma for the people you leave behind when you die. Even if you have made a Will previously, your circumstances may have changed. By making a Will that is current is just good sense.

Common questions about our Will Kits
What is a Will Kit and who should have one?
A Will Kit is a book that contains all the information about how to create a legally valid Will without seeing a lawyer. The kit contains a preformatted document or set of documents for you to use to write your Will/s. Any person over 18 who owns assets, has dependents or wants to leave their estate to someone they choose should consider using a will kit. The Australian Will Kit is suitable for anyone looking for a simple, affordable estate plan.
Are your Will Kits legally binding in Australia?
Yes, a properly completed will, provided the instructions are followed correctly from a kit, is legally binding. So long as you have signed it correctly and have used the witnesses as per the law, a kit based Will is of the same legal standing as that from a lawyer.
What happens if I die without a Will?
If you do not have a valid Will when you die, your estate will be distributed according to state/territory rules, often meaning your assets go to relatives in a fixed order. This may not match your wishes. A properly prepared Will makes sure that your assets are distributed just as you wish.
If anything changes and my circumstances change, can I update or change my Will?
Yes, you may replace your Will at any moment. A lot of people review their Will after life changes (marriage, having children, changing homes, separation). Making a new Will using the Will Kit is easy and inexpensive.
Do I need a lawyer if I’m using a Will Kit created by Australian Will Kits?
Not necessarily. The kits are comprehensive and simple to complete individually for simple estates and standard bequests. If your estate is complex (for example, business interests, trusts), you may still need legal advice. Our kit gives you a good, affordable starting point.
Do couples, blended families or individuals with dependents need your Will Kit?
Yes. The kit is adapted to singles, couples, blended families, people with children or dependents, and many others. It helps you to clearly understand the roles of executors, guardians, and beneficiaries, and explains how to leave any special wishes, so there is clarity and peace of mind.
How soon can I have a valid Will with the kit?
Following the process of filling out required details, signing in front of the appropriate witnesses, your Will becomes fully valid immediately. Many people get this done in under an hour, making it good for those who want a fast, affordable plan.
Is the Will Kit confidential and secure?
Of course, you complete the kit at home, privately. There is no need to schedule appointments, visit a lawyer’s office, or share sensitive information online. Once signed and witnessed, ensure that the Will is kept in a secure location to be retrieved when needed.
Does my Will Kit accommodate special requests (gifts, funeral wishes, guardianship, digital assets)?
Yes, the kit is flexible enough that gifts, funeral wishes, guardians for minors or dependents, and instructions for any digital assets or online accounts can be included. It’s adaptable to meet various personal needs without losing validity.
What makes Australian Will Kits a trustworthy option?
Australian Will Kits offers simplicity, affordability, and legal validity. Our kit includes clear instructions and an up to date Will form. Our customers appreciate transparency with no hidden fees, no forced lawyer consultations, just a ready to use will that complies with Australian law.
