Taylor Hewen

Position: Lawyer

Taylor joined the Wills and Estates Team at Tetlow Legal in 2023.

Prior to admission as a lawyer, Taylor worked for 6 years in administration and paralegal roles in both rural and urban law firms in New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory, giving her a wide range of experience in both jurisdictions across many areas of law and assisting clients from all backgrounds. Taylor has since developed a passion for Wills and Estates and has worked exclusively in this area since 2021.

Estate planning can be a confronting subject for some, but Taylor’s kind and approachable manner helps put clients at ease. Taylor has experience in preparing both straightforward and complex Wills (including Wills with Testamentary Trusts), NSW and ACT General and Enduring Powers of Attorney/Enduring Guardians and superannuation death benefit nominations. Taylor has a high attention to detail and believes in a holistic approach to estate planning. Taylor understands that estate planning is not ‘one size fits all’ and works collaboratively with clients, their families and accounting/financial advisors to provide tailored advice.

Taylor also has experience in administering deceased estates, including applying for Grants of Probate and Letters of Administration in NSW and ACT (both simple and complex) and all aspects of the estate administration process. Taylor is highly organised and works efficiently to ease the burden on families dealing with their loved one’s estate. No matter the circumstances, Taylor takes pride in being able to calmly and compassionately guide her clients through some of the most difficult times of their lives.
