Regular readers of our blog will know we’re big fans of fur babies. We’ve written a lot about considering pets in your will and what happens to pets if a couple separates. Now our Principal Michael Tiyce has been interviewed by Animal Friendly Life for their article on making sure your pets are taken care of in your will.

“Including your pet in your will is not just a legal formality—it’s a way of making sure they are treated exactly how you’d want and given as much consideration as possible.” Michael Tiyce

  • Providing financial support for the caregiver
  • Providing detailed instructions for ongoing care
  • Engaging a suitably experienced lawyer for advice
