Tinder-isation of the law

For most likely readers of View posts, Tinder is not an app that features on their handheld device (see - https://www.gotinder.com/).

This said, Tinder's historical 'swipe right for yes; swipe left for no' has become ubiquitous.

As 'gamification' similarly becomes expected across all aspects of our lives we have relaunched each of our 7 apps on both Apple and Android.

You can now use the Tinder inspired 'swipe right' approach to narrow down some of the broad areas that might be relevant in relation to a range of estate planning related topics.

Each app generates a free white paper or template legal document.

The apps are as follows -

1. estate planning;

2. self managed superannuation funds;

3. estate admin;

4. business succession;

5. memorandum of directions;

6. directors duties;

7. binding death benefit nominations.

All 7 of the View apps can be downloaded via our website – see - http://viewlegal.com.au/download-our-latest-apps/

Latest View app release – estate admin

Following the successful launch last numerous previous View Legal apps (in areas such as estate planning, business succession and SMSFs), we have now developed and launched another Apple and Android app.

The new app is in relation to estate administration and can be downloaded via the following links –

1. Apple – https://appsto.re/au/yweP_.i

2. Android – https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=view.legal.estate.admin

The administration of a deceased estate is a heavily regulated area and there are many aspects that can cause irreversible damage if misunderstood.

The View Legal Estate Admin app is designed to allow the user to narrow down some of the broad areas that might be relevant in relation to the administration of any deceased estate.

Depending on the answers provided, the app generates a free white paper containing general information about the key issues that are often relevant. All 7 of the View apps can be downloaded via our website – see - http://viewlegal.com.au/download-our-latest-apps/

Latest View Legal Apple and Android app launched

Following the successful launch last year of 5 View legal apps (in areas such as estate planning, business succession and SMSFs), we have now developed and launched another Apple and Android app.

The new app is in relation to creating a template Memorandum of Directions (MoD) and can be downloaded via the following links –

1. Apple – https://appsto.re/au/7ayT6.i
2. Android – https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=view.legal.mod 

A MoD can be an essential estate planning tool.

Importantly however, MoDs are generally only morally (not legally) binding and therefore do not change the provisions of a will.

The View Legal MoD app is designed to allow the user to narrow down some of the broad areas that might be relevant in relation to implementing, or updating, their MoD.

Depending on the answers provided, the app generates a free template memorandum of directions in PDF and word, allowing the user to then use this as a framework to complete the document as they wish. 

All 6 of the View apps can be downloaded via our website – see - http://viewlegal.com.au/download-our-latest-apps/

Until next week.

And another View Legal Apple and Android app launched

Following the successful launch earlier this year of the View Legal Directors Duties, Estate Planning, business succession and binding death benefit nomination apps, we have now developed and launched a further Apple and Android app.

The new app is in relation to Self-managed superannuation funds (SMSF) and can be downloaded via the following links –

1. iPhone - https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/smsf/id931264885?mt=8
2. Android – https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=view.legal.smsf

SMSFs can provide a range of benefits and opportunities not available via any other retirement savings approach.  

SMSFs are however heavily regulated and it is vital that fund members have a deep understanding across all relevant areas.

The SMSF app is designed to allow the user to narrow down some of the broad areas that might be relevant in relation to establishing, or updating, an SMSF.

Depending on the answers provided, the app generates a free white paper containing general information in relation to some of the issues that are often relevant.

Until next week.

Another View Legal Apple and Android app launched

Following the successful launch earlier this year of the View Legal Directors Duties, Estate Planning and business succession apps, we have now developed and launched a further Apple and Android app.

The new app is in relation to binding death benefit nominations (BDBN) and can be downloaded via the following links –

1. iPhone – https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/bdbn/id931237201?mt=8
2. Android - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=view.legal.bdbn

BDBNs can be an essential tool for anyone with superannuation savings.  BDBNs are however heavily regulated and there are many aspects that can cause irreversible damage if misunderstood.

The app explores some of the fundamental issues that arise for anyone with superannuation savings considering making a BDBN.

Depending on the answers provided, the app generates a free white paper containing general information in relation to some of the issues that are often relevant.

Until next week.

Latest View Legal Apple and Android app launched

Following the successful launch earlier this year of the View Legal Directors Duties and Estate Planning apps, we have now developed and launched another Apple and Android app.

The new app is in relation to Business Succession and can be downloaded via the following links –

1. iPhone – https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/business-succession/id927283653?mt=8
2. Android – https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=business.succession

Business succession is the important process of ensuring a plan is in place for a person’s business assets so they are dealt with, after death, as intended, while minimising the impact of challenges against the arrangements and costs such as stamp duty, tax and administration expenses.

The business succession area is however heavily regulated and it is vital that business owners and their advisers have a deep understanding across all relevant areas.

The business succession app is designed to allow the user to narrow down some of the broad areas that might be relevant in relation to a business succession plan.

Depending on the answers provided, the app generates a free white paper containing general information in relation to some of the issues that are often relevant.

Until next week.
