Are your personal affairs in order?
Here at ABMM we encourage people to plan today for tomorrow.
Too often we see the consequences of people not having their affairs in order. Many do not have wills or enduring powers of attorney in place and, for those that do, they are often out of date. This can create huge problems for family members and other loved ones. In addition to being costly, these problems can also be time consuming and stressful.
Our team at ABMM are experts in wills, enduring powers of attorney and estate planning matters. We appreciate that our clients lead busy lives. Our aim is to provide a friendly, helpful and efficient service.
Register for our free event and find out more about how we can help you to record your wishes.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
