Wills & estates lawyers we do list
What we do have everywhere: what wills and estates costs and guides and analysis.
Tell us about your matter A person reads every enquiry, and we only pass it to lawyers we list.
Doyle’s Guide scopes these lists to Western Australia and publishes no city for any listee, so we cannot tell you which of them work in Perth — we are showing them here because Perth is the state’s legal centre, not because Doyle’s places them in it. Each card links the exact list it came from.
Within this group the order is alphabetical. It is not a ranking.

Wills, estates and succession law is state-administered — each state has its own succession legislation, family provision regime, and probate registry. Estate planning straddles legal and tax advice; contested estate matters are litigation with their own evidence and procedure. Early estate planning typically saves substantial dispute cost later.
Perth is the centre of Western Australian legal practice with substantial resources, energy and mining-related commercial work. The Supreme Court of Western Australia, Federal Court (Perth Registry) and District Court all sit here. The Law Society of Western Australia regulates solicitors; WA Bar Association regulates barristers.
Regulators: Law Society of Western Australia (lawsocietywa.asn.au) and WA Bar Association (wabar.asn.au)
Supreme Court of WA Probate Registry. Family provision under Family Provision Act 1972 (WA) within 6 months of grant.
Indicative fees drawn from published cost data. Confirm in writing with any firm before engaging — written costs disclosure is mandatory under the Legal Profession Uniform Law.
| Pathway / matter type | Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Simple will | $440–$1,150 | |
| Probate | $2,200–$6,000 + fees | |
| Family provision | $22,000–$75,000 |
For the full wills & estates cost breakdown across Australia, see our Wills & estates cost guide.
Matter types we see most often in our intake from Perth and surrounding suburbs.
Single wills, mirror wills (couples), wills with testamentary trusts, powers of attorney, enduring guardianship, advance care directives. Tax-effective structures for high-net-worth estates often involve trust planning.
Application to Supreme Court for grant of probate (where there is a will) or letters of administration (where there isn’t). Filing fees scale with estate value. Administration includes notifying creditors, realising assets, paying debts, and distributing to beneficiaries.
Eligible persons may apply for further provision from a deceased estate where inadequately provided for. Time limits are strict and vary by state — 12 months in NSW from death (s58 Succession Act); 6 months from grant in VIC. Most claims settle at mediation.
Claims that a will is invalid — defective execution, lack of testamentary capacity, undue influence. Expert medical evidence usually required. High-cost litigation.
Disputes about asset valuation, distribution, executor conduct. Often resolved by mediation; court intervention available where executors are obstructing.
Family trusts, discretionary trusts, SMSF death benefit nominations. Interaction between estate and trust assets is a common area of dispute — trust assets are usually outside the estate but binding death benefit nominations control superannuation.
Five questions that determine whether the lawyer in front of you is the right fit for your matter.
