Family Law DB Valuations

The Family Law (Superannuation) Act 2001 provided for the potential to split superannuation interest on the breakdown of a marriage, like any other property. The regulations provide the methods to be used in these calculations.

We have a complimentary online calculator that values defined benefit superannuation entitlements that don't have special methods and factors.

Life and Remainder Interest Valuations

The value of a life interest may be needed for family law, stamp duty, accounting, and/or Centrelink purposes, or simply to effect an immediate settlement. These interests are often created by a testamentary trust to leave assets to children of a previous marriage, but provide usage of these assets to a current spouse.

Loss of Earnings
