In this episode Anna is joined by Rohani Bixler, who is in a league of her own when it comes to supporting families/parents/guardians to put in place arrangements to make sure their child (or children) living with disability are looked after when they die or lose capacity.

Rohani is a pre-eminent expert in the field and has a deep personal connection to the subject making today’s episode so compelling and comforting. This is a subject rich in emotion, complexity and something the team at Australian Unity Trustees is asked about a lot.

Guest: Rohani Bixler, Special Counsel at Burke & Associates Lawyers. Rohani is a highly regarded practitioner in the areas of Estate Planning, including bespoke testamentary trusts and advice for complex circumstances including blended families, private companies, family trusts, vulnerable beneficiaries, estranged family members.

The truth is most of us are unprepared for the practicalities of our own death. This podcast will get you thinking about what happens after you die, not in the philosophical sense, but what will happen to your kids, your things, your wealth, and even your body. Host Anna Hacker and her expert guests talk candidly on the legal, monetary, and physical elements of death. Learn what will happen if someone contests your will, who will get access to your superannuation and where do all your things go? Learn what you can do now to make sure your loved ones are taken care of. What happens when I die? is produced by Australian Unity.
