Preparing for the unknowing becomes a little more complicated in modern life and business.

Our electronic lives are increasingly more interconnected with others, and our personal and business lives (and assets) have become similarly intertwined too.

Hasty or uninformed decisions made today, without consideration for tomorrow, can be caught up in many unexpected problems; so it makes sense to think about what we can do today, to make sure our plans, gifts, and generosity, last well past tomorrow and avoid the common traps and misunderstandings of modern life (and its lawyers).

- Our experience has been most people get stuck not knowing what their options are and who they can turn to for professional guidance.
- Additionally, in our increasingly litigation-focused world - from The Family Law Court to Personal Injury Lawyers - documenting your agreements has never become such an important part of modern life.

We'd love to help you with that so all the Key Legal Documents you read about here, are all available for purchase through the Sapience Customer Portal from our partner law firm.

### Putting off important decisions creates low-level anxiety

- In life, research shows blended (and blending) families delay and put off getting their Estate Planning and Wills sorted the most (possibly due to the complexity of their personal situation.)
- In business, [Partnerships ](https://www.sapience.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=174&Itemid=738)– joint business ventures by businesses – usually put off creating their [Partnership Agreement](https://www.sapience.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=380&Itemid=977) and run the catastrophic risks of running an undocumented partnership. This is because g*eneral partnerships have unlimited liability* – each partner is jointly liable for the actions (or inactions) of the other as well as themselves.

### Below is a list of some of the key legal documents every person and business owner needs to have in place, *in addition* to their personal[ Modern Estate Planning](https://www.sapience.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=111&Itemid=805).

###  The Difference between Estate Planning documents &amp; Key Legal documents

There are two main types of legal document we'll all need during our personal lives, family lives, and even business lives.

1. **Structure documents** – often called *Estate Planning documents* – that clearly outline our own important life decisions – like appointing a Power of Attorney, nominating Legal Guardians for dependent children, and creating Wills.
2. **Agreement documents** – often called *Key Legal documents* – that clearly outline agreements and reasons that usually have longer term consequences for others - like documenting family loans, changes in blended family relationships and specific decisions, obligations, and responsibilities.

All these documents are available and purchased through our Sapience Secure Customer Portal with the assistance of your financial adviser.

### Why do we provide these Key Legal Documents?

Up until now, getting your key legal documents in place as well as your [personal risk insurances](https://www.sapience.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=101&Itemid=757) and [estate planning](https://www.sapience.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=111&Itemid=805), has been a fractured and unnecessarily difficult process, with many people simply putting off completing these important decisions, to a future easier time that never actually arrives.

Many people report they often end up living with a low level of anxiety until it's finally sorted.

### Let us help you get these documents sorted

- Sapience believes your financial adviser is uniquely placed to understand your personal situation over time, more than a one-time chat with a solicitor creating a legal document for you.
- Our **Modern Estate Planning** service provides a premium complete solution for busy people who need to get their modern estate planning and key business documents in place without, having to go to a physical solicitors' office.

**Pro Tip**: Be careful about purchasing legal documents from online marketing firms masquerading as law firms, as the law firms who sold the document template to the marketer are not responsible for the document and for keeping them up to date - the same way a Post Office Will Kit is a document that has no legal backing. caveat emptor!

We can help you build these key legal documents with our Legal Partners through our Secure Customer Portal.
