Wealth
If a person is unable to manage their own affairs, due to age, disability or other personal circumstances, a financial administrator is appointed to act on their behalf.
An administrator protects assets and manages the finances for the benefit of the person under administration.
A request for administration can be made by a family member, friend or carer to a state tribunal which then makes the appointment.
As a financial administrator, we ensure the client’s will and preferences are at the forefront of all decisions made on their behalf and their finances are managed in line with their needs.
We provide a dedicated client manager who also works with our client’s circle of support to ensure we provide the best care and answer any questions on an ongoing basis.
