Ensuring Your Peace of Mind

Contact

EOL services operates as a concierge death service – meaning that once you pass away, we work with the people you want us to work with in doing the work required:
  • to perform all the notifications of your passing, 
  • assist with your funeral arrangements, 
  • assist with achieving probate, 
  • assist with defending against any contesting of the Will,
  • assist your executor in administering your Will
  • assist in liquidating of stocks, shares, bonds, other financial securities, or company interests
  • transferring property titles, company shares
  • selling off the estates unwanted chattels 
  • making records of all valuables to be presented to the executor upon passing
  • checking current and old insurance policies for any attached applicable death insurance
  • If there is a surviving spouse, we will be there to help them get through their grief and help them readjust to life without you.

       We also assist while you are living (see below)...
Initial Engagement

We start by having a free initial meeting to discuss your specific situation and needs. You are under no obligation to continue after this initial meeting. From that meeting we will put together a schedule and an idea of the specific cost for the services you would want from us.

After seeing the breakdown schedule and cost you can decide if you want to continue with EOL Services. You will always be able to discontinue our service, at any stage, by simply sending us an email or letter notifying us that you wish to discontinue the service. EOL Services would then forward you the balance of the trust account.

If you want to use EOL Services, you simply pay for a Single or Couple Service. That money is put into trust – this is the only payment that will be required. Any further payment will be taken from the estate of the deceased. No other money is required whilst the client is alive. 

Once a client, you can utilise our service at any time to assist with any issue you feel we may be of assistance ie dealing with NBN, Centrelink, Hospitals advocacy, Retirement Village Management and so on.... The only amount you pay is the initial upfront fee, all additional charges will accrue against the estate (upon your initial approval).

    Once engaged EOL services will start:

    • Preparing all your End of Life documentation. This includes reviewing your Will, Enduring Power of Attorney, Advanced Health Directive and so on. (this part of the service is free of charge to clients)
    • Making a record of your assets for your executor – this includes listing your specific valuables that need to be located and secure upon your passing.
    • putting together the probate application,
    • filling out all the transfer documents (properties, shares, stamp duty offset,  etc),
    • establishing all the death notifications and prepare for sending out death certificates. Most financial institutions will require death certificates and the grant of probate before allowing access to accounts and policies.
    • establish the processes for liquidation of assets. Setting up auctions, garage sales, independent listings for sale items, liaising with retirement village etc…

If you own a property and want to leave it to your son, you might bequeath it to them in your Will. 

In administering your Will, your executor would need to know how to transfer that property into your son’s name. To avoid having to pay stamp duty on the property your executor would also need to know how to put in an application to have stamp duty offset for the transfer.

In handling the transfer, EOL Services would fill in all documents, put these documents into the folder listing all additional documents that need to be included (like the death certificate), include an envelope of where it needs to be sent, and when it needs to be sent. 

Everything will be ready for the executor to review and send. Not having to do anything themselves. Leaving time for family and friends to grieve rather than stress over how to do these things.

    Our process starts with EOL Services looking at your Will and making  necessary preparations for the defence of your last Will and testament. We have a conversation and discussion with you and /or your beneficiaries to ensure your wishes are understood by all. Administering a Will is a most contentious issue and the cause of most infighting amongst family and friends. As a third party EOL Services help your executor administer your Will without being emotionally involved. EOL Services will communicate your wishes and the thoughts behind your decisions to all involved, acting as your final advocate.

    In administering your will EOL Services will assist with activities required to finalise your estate. EOL Services are hands-on, meaning we will help pack boxes, do tips runs and help clean and prepare assets (homes, cars, caravans etc) for sale.

    With the surviving spouse EOL Services help your spouse reorganise their life without you. This may require new thoughts on transport, setting up online groceries, applying for Government assistance, managing and planning for Health and wellbeing, Day to day care (cleaning , food, bills, garden maintenance etc), social reintegration (Life Coach), grief counselling and so on….

Once engaged, EOL Services will start putting together all these documents that are needed once you pass. All these documents will be filled out and put into a physical folder ready to be sent out to various places after you have passed. This process will be overseen and approved by your Executor. It means you executor won’t have to do all these things themselves, everything will be set up ready for them once you pass.
